Post by: Poole Panther on July 02, 2014, 10:43 PM: Thanks fischflo, just what I was looking for. Re keeping it 'as is', it's a bit late I'm afraid, I bought it mainly for the a Star bars and a couple if other bits so it's being dismantled. Not touching the F&F at the mo though, not sure what to do with it....
