This kit needs a large stage for rigging. I set up an area that gave me access all the way around the model and placed the model in its homemade cradle on a turntable so I could spin the model around as I worked. Standing ready are spools of my favorite rigging materials — .007" nylon monofilament (4/0 medical suture) and E-Z Line by Berkshire Junction, fine elastic thread sold for model railroading application.
