The chassis is ready, in fact it's been ready for years, just never got round to doing the case , I am now a step nearer to getting it finished , the material is the paper backed type, the blue looks a bit to modern I think the original was a lighter blue, a little touching up needed in the recesses ,I used the glue recommended , I am quite pleased with it .

Hi Mick, interesting every example I have seen has been very dark blue (almost black).

That does not mean there were not other colours of course

I will try to print your tuning scale the first try was not successful (size issue)

Cheers
