Thank you bONES, : ยท )
I have been spending time on the Internet downloading reference photos for rigging, have purchased lengths of thin wire and am pondering. I have gone the weighted thread route before on other models; guess I want to try something different.

My mate PICNIC is building the FG Sopwith Dolphin and has done the rigging by hanging cotton thread from a table with a weight on the end and coating with PVA glue. When dry he has simply cut the pieces to length and fitted. This gets around the problem of "furry" rigging and the need to use mono which is troublesome. pOST SOME PICS WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED. bONES....aarrrgh I hate the capslock key !!!, wish I could touch type but I'm too lazy to bother.

Printed on Wausau 90 lb exact index. Thought I'd share a few in-process photos of the build: SCORING: Done on a light table with two layers of Kleenex tissue as padding. A plastic business card was the straight edge and a worn out ball point pen made the impression. WHEELS: After cutting out and fumbling with all the paper tire rings, I substituted discs punched out of a Cheerios cereal box cover and will sand to shape later. PARTS READY FOR ASSEMBLY: The wing rib scoring is evident in this snap shot. The shine is from several coats of Krylon Clear Acrylic gloss.
