Sorry John, undercarriage.

RodN...Thought UC meant LG but was not sure. Moose.... Al stock is rising up further. Stronger and thinner than balsa or bass and almost equal in mass!

John, are you using flashing for your aluminum? I just found what is called "tooling aluminum" at an art supply store. I believe it is a softer aluminum for embossing. I've been playing with it and it is very flexible. The cool/odd thing about aluminum is that the more you work it, the harder it becomes. I don't know how many times you can anneal it before it gives way. Great model you have here.
