Gulp!!!

It's been a while since I've done anything to R2 - school hols, work etc. 

But, now my co-builder is back at school I can start making a bit of progress again.

A bit of where shall I start in the DMW and I decided to crack on with the panel cutouts on the skins.

Gulp!!! If I get this wrong then its scrap the skins and make them from styrene.

I had scribed the cut linefor the inner skin and with a 0.75mm thick cutting disc in the dremel away I went. The dremel must have been working hard because it must have stopped a dozen times due to a thermal cut-out.  Eventually the inner piece was done.

Good the flash hides the dodgy bit!!!

 Don't look too closely though otherwise you will see the lines aren't quite straight.  It only took just over an hour to do, so the it will be atime consuming process. And the dome will take even longer as its thicker - great!.

Hopefully the updates will become a little more frequent now as my step-daughter has suggested R2 carrying her wedding ring next August.
