Do it again Rosie

While I wish I had the gumption to rebuild the tail wheel itself, I'm ok with this so far.

The mount look more like a leaf spring. I might have something for that also.
 
Sorry i am just catching up here Bob. That undersize piece of clear !!!! why do they do that ? they could give you an A4 sheet and it wouldn't cost as much as them trying to cut up a piece to size. On my last car build Italeri give you a piece of 7mm tubing to make some hoses. its 30mm long and if you add up the dimension in the instructions the four pieces required add up to 35mm ? this plastic tube is throw away price. I just bought 6 sheets of A4 , 0.4mm clear for exactly the reason you needed it. The postage was more than the sheet :) (moan over)

Love the tail wheel I probably have the springs you need as well, 5mm long from MFH labelled as exhaust springs for holding silencer to pipes.
 
Thank's Paddy, I couldn't find the clear sheets at the Hobbylobby but I did find clear sticker, stuck the frame to it then a couple of coats of clear deactivated the sticky glue. It's not up to exacting standards but works for me.
I'm going to add another run of brass to simulate that leaf spring action. I got the chain and spring work already mapped out.
