Thanks guys  Apologies for the 'arris-draggin' tedium of this build but my Cave time is really takin' a hit in this weather......it's SOOOO feckin' brassy out there I can barely manage an hour at a time in the evenings....Mrs Nemo is working this Saturday so I'm hoping to get a half-decent session then.....we'll see eh? Anyhoo, managed a little more tonight.... Progressed the lower half of the Port side Inner Wing stub....  Top half got the framing treatment......  Dry-fit......  Worked on the Stbd wing-fold.....  Roughed out the two drop down undercarriage covers that I'd previously removed from the wing lowers....  Trying to design a wing-fold that will be strong enough to support the weight of the wing and still look like it's supposed to.....ain't easy! AC&?W

Yessir Nuncie C - If you look closely yer'll see I attached a brass rod to the trailing end of the inner wing and a corresponding locating hole which you can see just above and right of the round wheel bay of the wing underside - this will support the wing itself and take most of the weight, the hinge end will just provide stability and locate/anchor the assembly........hopefully!

Nice update, Mr.F. Sounds like you've got the wing fold thing figured out. I see no reason why it won't work.
