Thanks for sharing Jim

Interesting little set...
John,
I wonder if there's a 1/700 set like this? Or in the making?

;)

In 700 scale you would probably glue more to your fingers than to the model. They are only about an eigth of an inch in 350 scale

Tell me about it, Bro!
I'm building a 1/700 flattop, using a Gold Medal Models PE set, and there are parts in there so small that I'm using a pair of cheater Magnifier glasses and a standup magnifier together to work with! There's even microscopic bicycles in the set!

My hat is REALLY off to you guys who do PE on the 1/700 scale ships!!! It's tough enough on the 1/350 which are TWICE the size. I don't know how you do it.
