Ita amazing to think of small cara as being family suitable for long trips - my grandad used to own a 1931 Austin Seven and used to cram Four of them and cases and the dog and cat and go 150miles to the seaside for a holiday in it one of these - Not my pic. OC. -
I always build things with a relavence to us the Chally is no different, another of the places where we used to live - we were about 3 miles away form a MOD firing range where Challengers and other field pieces used to do live firing, we would often hear them quite clear the Challys destinctive "snap" sound as it fired, also sometimes they would be driven past us on the roadway on either Scamell or those other more modern transporters - what a fantastic site over 100 tons tank/transporter combined.

Looking really nice mate. OC. -
My idea is to either use one of my plastic clips or just hold the sprue with a throw away glove then spray away, might try to rig my hairdryer up on an extension leed then force dry the sprues before they can be put in the box, the idea is - any tough ups should be minimal and not on the surface areas, also all the join areas will be carefuly scraped back before assembling.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
