Safely packaged in a resealable sleeve is a beautiful 8.5 x 11 booklet and a small decal sheet. The booklet contains 25 pages of high-quality paper featuring clear photos. Most pages have two large photos which make details easy to see. A variety of variants are covered in this volume from the early E-1 to the E-3. This period of use for the Bf-109 was quite colorful with a variety of paint schemes. Kagero has shown most of the paint schemes. There are 16 pages of photos, four pages (not including the back cover) of wonderful color profiles. Six aircraft are included in the profile views. There are six pages of line drawings to show the differences and changes in the variants. The drawings are in 1/72^nd and 1/48^th scale.

Text is limited to the captions on the photos. That really isn’t the purpose of this book.

John and UMM-USA have been a godsend for those that like to scratch build by supplying tools and parts to make life easier for all of us as well as giving us access in the US to suppliers not as easily found. This selection is three styles of soft lead wiring perfect for ignition harnesses, wiring jets or anything that might need some kind of wiring or plumbing. The sets come in three types- round 0.4mm, half round and flat at 0.4mm.

Each set comes with about 20 pieces by 140mm for these sizes. Many different sizes are also available. I love the size consistency as the size being reviewed is about the right size for 1/48^th scale ignition wires on a radial engine. I grabbed an old one and installed a couple wires and they look great. I also made a quick (and sloppy) trial for a wiring harness using the flat stock as the wraps and it looks good for a couple minutes work.

Highly recommended for all builders looking for that little upgrade or scratch building.
