Two new tools that made rigging *MUCH* easier:

Hi all,

I've been working on the rigging for my Glencoe MB-2 biplane kit, and it has been going slowly. My two problems were that I had a hard time seeing the holes I had drilled in the wings (where the rigging lines go), and the super glue would take too long to cure.

So this weekend I picked up a Panter Vision (that's the brand) baseball cap, which has two bright LED lights at the end of the brim! I also picked up some superglue accelerator.

Now I can see, and the glue sets instantly. Rigging is going much more quickly.

Here's a link to the hat: http://www.perfectionoptics.com/prd_hat.html

I got my at Lowes for around $20.

My wife thinks I look funny, but I don't care.
