Radiator and Turnbuckles

Just had sometime today to do some touch ups on the propeller and put the radiator in place. I love these old aircraft with their shiny metal bits and designs that don't worry too much about aerodynamics. It must have been horrible for a pilot if the radiator was punctured or ruptured as the scalding hot water only has one place to right into the cockpit!

I also am working and researching how to make some turnbuckles for this aircraft. I have looked at several methods and settled on adding some handmade attachment points and then I will puzzle over how to add the turnbuckles to the rigging.

A garbage bag tie provided a starting point. I stripped off some of the covering and
wrapped it around small tweezers to make the eyelet. 

Then I cut off the loop, drilled an attachment hole, and then glued the
loop into the fuselage.
