It looks like you're torturing it. Which is good, it probably deserves it.

Re: gnomemeansgnome's golden oldie Heinkel 51
Finally got the last of the rigging on, including that funny y shaped rigging from the edges of the wings to the tail. First time I have used elastic thread and crazy glue to do so. Took several tries and endless patience and I shouldn't be surprised if it snaps off soon but at least I have photographic proof. My tenth build this year, and glad to have it off the bench. Enjoy, folks.
