'every thing in one'!

During the years the collection of tools would be bigger and bigger. Some of them I used only for one ore two times and others are my favourites.
One year ago, by a fiend, I got the ultimate curiosity!
It is the 'every thing in one'!
One problem for all modelbuilder:
With a lot of parts, we'll build a front- or backwing
When all is fixed and together, the ensembel should be angular and suitable in all 3 levels (front, side and top)!
It's an exercise for a tibetian monk after founding the 3 step of wisdom.
It looks simply and is a big laugh!

So you can see, the base is a peace of steel, with 3 and 2 blind holes with threaded bores.
One alloy angel profile is fixed with the 'little' bores.

The most impotant part is the right angel steelpart. Ther you can see 2 blind holes – uniform depth. At the bottom you can see the cutout for the second right angle.
At the good end, you need 2 springs – equal length!
I hope all, is seems comprehensible
The problem: here you'll fix more parts, than you've hands!
For example, I took the backwing of an Allard LM. So the interested Builder can see, by constant pressure of the springs, the individual parts are arranging in her self.
