I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Time for some assembly (If you are a Norm Abrams fan you know where that quote came from)

Looking good! And, "There is no more important safety rule than to wear these, safety glasses!"

Hahaha. My real hobby is woodworking. I have a dresser I have to make for my son-in-law but I can't buy any wood in our state until at least May 4 so .......

Looks like we will reopen on Monday. For just killing time that's good work.

Thanks. I have had some invaluable help from people on this website.

I could use some help on the issue of cleanly cutting out the plastic parts. I used a modeling knife to poke holes around the edges of the cowl which worked. The plastic was thinner around the intake and I wrecked the part. I have more parts to work on. What suggestions does anyone have for me please.

Cutting these parts are very tricky. What I do is cut the part out with a little flash left, then sand the flash back until I have the correct part outline. That way you are not trying to cut at the point where the flash and part meet. Sanding gives a lot more control.

Thanks Ed (again). I just came up from downstairs having tried exactly that on the spinner. Creeping up on it definitely works.

Example of great minds thinking alike! BTW - Guillows sales replacement parts, so if the intake is not repairable, check out their website.

I found out a week ago when I tried to buy a 1/16 scale pilot that they are closed down with the rest of our state until at least May 4. I think I have managed to repair the part however....
