Very nice strut mod there. What did you use to build up the offset with? My first guess was JB Weld? You continue to raise the bar...Between you and Misha lately, I'm thinking I might just have to put my Zero further back in the kitbash que so I can practice on some different ones first

No, you're over thinking it, it is not structural but only a fairing. So, I built it up very quickly and easily with hard balsa saturated with thin CA and epoxy and micro balloons. All this was done after bending the struts to the closest scale outline I could.

I just thought these would be a nice touch, adding to my scale tail wheel. Keep going on yours, just pick up some ideas for the next one.
