Caution on the ratios though Brian,

Our Aeropoxy uses a different ratio.

I find that the ratio-table and scale method works very well.

Cheers,

Perspex is clear plastic. There are various grades quite often used for
windows. The kit is supplied with an aircraft grade for the doors and
windscreen. You can get general perpous stuff, I used 2-3 mm,  from DIY
or
hobby stores.

The one I made is similare to the handbook, two support pillers for the
pivot and I did away with the swinging arm at one end i.e a simple
see-saw
with one arm longer than the other to give the ratio needed, 4-1 for
Ampreg
and 2-1 for Redux.. I put two platforms at the cup positions with
targets on
them to make it easy to centre the cups.
