Hi all thanks for all the replys, I have decided it will go to the spares draw as I can see lots of possibilities with the parts from it in other dio's.

Well its out of the spares drawer and put together again. My missus told my boss it was finished and she told her husband so he insisted on seeing it, I told him I was not at all happy with it but he insisted so I fixed it up and showed him, he loved it as did my boss he wants to buy it, I don't know what to charge so have left it to him, he asked how much the kit was and said he will have a think and decide how much. That's fine by me as whatever he pays will go towards another kit.

I'd say it sure finished up nicely! I really like the beef-eaters. Nothing could be more British.

Glad to hear it was a profitable enterprise for you, although mentioning that around these parts might lead to being asked for a small loan...
