"7" grill
Just finished fitting my grill to the nose cone and am quite pleased with the results.
The basic grill is from Lolocost (£7 at Detling)
The 7 and surround are made by bending 2 old coat hangers with hands and pliers to a match a blown up picture of a C****ham nose, wired and Araldited
to the main grill.
The whole lot was spray primered, sprayed with aluminium paint and the blue bits picked out in some blue I happened to have lying around.
Drilled some holes in the grill opening and fixed with washers and the insides of electrical connectors (cut the plastic off)

That looks really good, I'm particularly impressed with the 7. How have you joined the loose ends of wire together?

1. The 7 is because the grill cost £7
2. First of all I soldered the ends together but that split so I Araldited them
