Oh yes! If you do not have any needle files, you will sure wonder why you didn’t sooner once you have them. Superb tools for cleaning up mold seam lines off of parts..

Re: 1:48 Tamiya Corsair
I finished up the Mk. II harness prototype this morning. Tamiya tape, coaxial cable wire, and fiddly buckle bits carefully trimmed out of a French Market Coffee & Chicory freshness seal. I’m happy with this so far:
Bruce, thank you for the sketches and encouragement. I feel a lot better about this one.
Carlos, thank you for the advice and encouragement as well!

Thanks Chief! I appreciate it! I’m gonna paint it later on after I paint a little on the Stuka cockpit.
And yep! Buc-Ee’s is awesome!

Installed, and the the final bit of construction on the cockpit module is complete! And the seatbelts look a lot better than I thought they would in there!
If this isn’t cause for a *ONE* Coors Celebration, I don’t know what is!
Cheers! And thanks again for your help, Bruce and Carlos!
