Thanks chaps, much appreciated.
Rick. I glued the P.E. on with UHU General purpose glue. It's in a yellow tooth paste type box. Make sure you rough up the brass contact surface with a bit of fine sand paper or similar before applying the glue.
I know people will argue that it's not as good as c.a., it isn't. But which mumpty would keep tugging at a glued part to see if the joint was strong enough? If applicable, members please feel free to fill in the space with your name..........................
If the bond is strong enough, it's good enough. That will do me. I ain't going to mess with the part after it's fixed, that's for sure.
Simon. I hate p.e. with a passion. Unfortunately, as there was no plastic equivalent in the kit, I had no choice but to use the stuff.
Thanks again for all your encouraging comments boys.
Update.....
The turret is built. a no nonsense, no frills, straight forward design. Excellent fit.
Yer' man again!
Cheers.
