If you haven't seen this and have alot of time to kill you must read through this build. Amazing work and fun illustrations to boot!

All I can do is look at it and not think about it too much or i'd never build again. Some people have a lot of talent and patience...then there's this guy.

Awesome detail. By the way, you can tell the guys on that forum that the "odd looking metal pipe" asked about on page 34 is the crankcase breather tube.

The skill involved definitely rivals what measly amount of work I did on the B-24, but he's still got over 150 pages of updates to do to rival the thread! :wink:

There's no online forum better than WIX, that's for sure. :D

I like the penny! Like the build alone wouldn't take enough time but then to add illustrations on top of it. A book would be pretty cool.
