Thanks Steph! In time I'll be in touch about some sort of custom gearbox to offer with the kit – mutual benefits, of course, if you're interested?

I must admit I've not thought of that approach before. It may be worth investigating if I go down the resin master route. Thanks!
Do you mind posting a pic of your MMP 03 here so I can compare it to the DJH version please. I've never seen one before but I was talking to Adrian Swain about him reintroducing the kit at some stage.Steve,
the panel was sized off my MMP 03. When my printer returns from having a new laser fitted, I will try to print the panel as it will add to the what you can print and what you cannot print knowledge.

On a slightly different tack...louvres. I'm sure I once saw a method for making REAL ones, ie: stamped out of brass or nickel silver sheet, using a hardened part in a lathe/drillpress/milling machine.
It was in one of the earlier MRJ's.....
If I remember correctly he developed it even further, being able to pivot the baseplate so that he could make curved louvres! but I can't remember for which car that was.I'm also trying to find an article by Gerald Wingrove - the car modeller - on the tool he uses to do louvres. I think he started with one which stamped individual louvres but I think he progressed onto one which used a hardened wheel cutter which moved along the louvres like a guillotine wheel, cutting and shaping as it went. The advantage of the second type was that it could be used for any length of louvre, whereas a separate stamping tool had to be made for each different length of louvre.
