The suspension has given me all sorts of problems, onto my 4th attempt, first attempts, were to make a set of springs then, cast some off... didn't really work as well as hoped, neither did the second attempt, and third attempt was OK in plastic card, however after making a mould they were too brittle in resin.... :-( Hence attempt No 4 :-) Even though it will never be a 'production set' just cannot help but trying to get it look some where near decent :-)
