Thanks for the vote of confidence guys

Mast finaly coming together







To give a sense of scale the top radar mast is made from 0.8, 0.5 & 0.2mm brass wire.

Thanks for looking in

I love how you're doing the Type 286 radar. I wish I had Stan Pienkowski do that when I had him rebuild/restore my Type I Vosper ........ darn it.
