An icy week was somewhat lifted by the invitation I received on the Monday morning to arrange an appointment for my first vaccine injection.  Duly arranged for Friday morning a 10 minutes walk from home across London Fields and dispensed within a matter of minutes by one of about a dozen medics assisted by many others.

No cycling this week because of the ice…

The second set of the Peter Malinski Hexagonal Train are in better condition and only two pockets needed attention.  There were, however, no split rings on the tail attachment loops.  I have ordered more as I think that attaching/detaching the tails on the field will be very much easier if split rings are in place.  I was interested to see the second signature sail at the back of the stack and also the single pilot kite attachment point.  The connector rings to join the two stacks are quite substantial.  I have drawn out the replacement sail fabric ready for the first cut-out and sewing steps.  It is useful to have notes on hand from making the pilot sail.

I finished colouring up a full set of the Jørgen Møller Hansen 1992 Rev/Zen revised graphics to send to the team and have had some responses.  I’ll have to wait a few more days before re-contacting Revolution regarding this project.  The full sized print has been dispatched to Martin Lester so that he can check it against the official profile.

While it may be many months before these projects are fully realised it is great to be steadily progressing from one detail to the next!
