Hello
Yesterday I had a great
I wanted to make chains on my smoke dischargers and I will explain this here how I did it.
First take some electric wire.
Then take 2 small wires from the bundle. Wrap these around each other. Then take a pincer and press the created wire very good.
The next step is to put them on your model with some glue and you are finished.
You can see it also on my website
Cheers and happy modeling Roel
Sorry if the quality of the pics is bad. I toke them outside but my camera goes wild when I take close up shots.

Thanks for the replies.
I added a new close up pic. I think this one is better.
Here is one how it looks on a model.
Cheers Roel

Nice looking Fuchs Roel. It is 1/35 scale kit? I've build this model in 1/72.
