Hi Chris,
That's nice work. Is that a PAW 1cc up front?
It would be of help to you to fly with other control line fliers in your area. Where in UK are you?
If you haven't already found the Barton Forum, let me recommend it to you.

Personally I wouldn't use and fabric lines, instead I'd look for some .008" Brodaks do them, you may also find something suitable in fishing tackle shops.
Good luck with the Mite.
regards
Greg
