a couple of dabs. The problem was the sides would not stay in place assembling them to the bottom of the seat. Quite baffled as to why not. But, yes a bit of CA used.

My hands hurt - have for the last couple of days. Arthur is acting up.

Anyway, got the broken control arm reattached...twice. And another control arm that simply butts against a >1mm surface attached. What are these knuckleheads thinking? Only 16 parts to this......Oy.

Thanks, Stuart! Slow, very slow…but coming along should be ready for paint in about 27 months.
