</p><div><span style="font-size: 9pt">Hi Pfact,

Ill post a pic of it tomorrow but it&rsquo;s a modified tip of an old airbrush that&rsquo;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 !!</span></div><div><span style="font-size: 9pt">Ill show you tomorrow what it looks like :) To late now to go and take a pic.

I have the PNP Mirage 2000C plans. I think they are 1/7 scale. A set of retracts for this size would be nice. Keep up the good work.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt">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&rsquo;s just a little change here and there!</span><o:p></o:p></p>
