well i would post the pics directly to the thread but for the face that the site won't let me. something about the file being too big. and since i'm a dirty recidevistic technophobe i don't know how to resize them
i'm trying to get my hands on a pin vice to try out another way of extending the legs, namely filing the plasticard til it's level with the leg using a guide pin to make sure it all lines up neatly but since my pin vice got lost in a recent house move and gw have stopped selling them for the moment this might take a while.
dead, its funny you say a diagonal cut doesn't work cos thats the cut i used in the 2nd attempt

the 1st one got a 90 degree and he looks like he's doing the splits!
seeing your pics would really help me alot here. be sure to let me know when you post them.
EDIT: changed the links to pics in a rare moment of computer savy, happy now?
