If you wouldn?t mind sharing a photo of both that would be great. I might message Ben when time comes then for a hinge set, don?t really want to cut up my steel ones as they are pretty decent.

That's all 4 of the Hangar 30 hinges taped together in the last photo, just in case that's not obvious!
Next big purchase might have to be the fuel tank as I need to figure out the mounting structure for it. Really want one these from Nuke...

The Nuke CFC and the Radium Engineering FCST are quite expensive for what you get( iirc. 1000 pound for a basic unit with fuel cell but without fuellpumps/ levelsender/ fillerneck-flappervalve etc.).
I have made one myself and the total cost for the parts is around 100pound for the topplate, fullpump mounts, swirlpot, 6pin fuel resistent bulkhead connector, Viton flapper valve and the fillerneck
The (used) ATL fuel cell was around 180 pounds.
It saves quite some money and it is an straightforward job..

Good job on building one yourself, looks good!
They?re not a cheap unit, no. The CFC on it?s own without pumps, sensor etc is c?550-600. The one I pictured with the tank comes in at around ?650, so a cheap tank to be fair, although not FIA approved, which doesn?t bother me anyway.
I could even get one made for less that would be more than suitable for the job but there?s just something about the set up and tank I really like, I can?t explain it.
This build is about function but not entirely over form. It?s very much about the journey for me (bloody should be, it?s taken long enough! Lol)
I like your holey bits.
