He used .010x.020 strip, and it looked good, particularly in light of having done the Swordfish kits with the PE rigging. I had some, and tried it on my own He-51, which had been sitting around (as biplanes are wont to do here) wiating for me to "get it up" for a mad rigging weekend (sit there and rig biplanes till you go blind - a good job on our version of a "winter weekend" like this one, only got to 60F during the day with miserable English low clouds over all:-)). Anyway, it worked. So I decided to try it on an OT subject, and just completed the re-rigging of my Aeroclub R.E.8. This is a good subject, because I well remember how it looked with the High E guitar string. It looks *great*!!! A hundred times better than it did. Now on to that BM S.E.5a. Not to mention that Evergreen strip is a heckuva lot easier to glue in position, using Elmer's glue. So,when it's time for raf wires, it's time for Evergreen.

Take it apart the same way it went together. Use testors liquid cement to unglue the joints. Use an old brush and keep working it in the seam till you can gently pull it apart.
