Hi Pfact,
Ill post a pic of it tomorrow but it’s a modified tip of an old airbrush that’s on the end of a soldering iron and to get the spacing perfect I use a metal rule with notches cut in it works real well !!

Carlos,
I can make set of 1/5 scale gear if you are interested, would look great in you Jet
Ppljr, The mirage 2000 is a little different But I can easily make you a set for your jet! It’s just a little change here and there!<o></o>
