Here's a few pic's of the console as it goes from cardboard to aluminum and mock up wood. Still need to do the rivets, what you see are Cleco's holding it all together. Using some of my aircraft building skills to make this one.
ok no pic's pic's because the Dumb sob's at photo bucket have totally screwed up the process to post picks. I quit !
I know you always do such nice work. So I guess we'll wait 'til you sort out the pic thingy...
Ok I think I figured it out, techy changes aren't good for me.
