Thanks, guys , I knew the help would come! I shall definitely check out those sites. I bought a 1/12 Arizona Fokker DVII a couple of years ago and although at first look I thought I'd wasted my money (with a bit of thought you could find all those component raw materials yourself!) I've now come round to seeing the whole project as a modelling challenge I'll one day take on. I always wanted to scratchbuild in 1/12 scale anyway!
Back to the DV - I won't be attempting wire wheels for this project (Albatros steel studded wheel covers look too cool!) but would like further details anyway, thanks the Pipe!
