Another great build! I'll looking forward further progress! Good luck!

...this brass part that you've soldered for edging top intake... that was a part from kit, or made by yourself?

Thanks for your interest,
I made this part of the intake by myself with ,a I believe a 0,8mm Brassrod and sanding. I think next times comes more
Information with this. The old white metal Kits are great for soldering parts.
