Having trouble with construction of the Tamiya Fw 190A-3 (I had to use putty), this book should help me get to the next level. I hope it has a chapter on using aluminum. I have seen a lot of advanced modelers using aluminum (cut coke cans) for various parts. I like the idea and don't see brass solder as being strong enough. So I have ordered a TIG welder (tungsten electrode and an inert gas) running at nearly 1220ºF (660ºC). Already have a place for it right next to modeling desk. With "More Scratchbuilding Masterclass", the sky is the limit. Yep, expect some big things coming in the future.

From a facebook posting, Chris announced the closing of his book publishing company:
"After 12 years, I have had to closed Inside the Armour Publications I will no longer be producing new books.
Sadly, ITAPubs never recovered from the effects of brexit, losing 60% of our sales overnight when the new customs regimes came in, and the business could not expand in the US and Asia due to spiralling shipping costs. I tried for 18 months, but I can no longer sustain it.
The next book, Heroyam...
