Hi Guys,
1000 white toggle caps have arrived at my door and are ready for posting. I will post private messages to you all very soon regarding the Paypal details etc. Could you all please provide your postal details in your replies and I'll find out what the postage will be, it should be pretty cheap as they are very light. Be aware that the last parts I posted by normal airmail,(to Canada), took 4 weeks to arrive so if you want express post let me know.
As I said before, they are a little loose on the switches and I'm going to try making a small sleeve out of fish tank plastic tubing to take up the space, I'll let you know if it works out, otherwise silastic works fine.
Thanks to you all!

Hi guys,
Today I bought some plastic tubing from an aquarium shop, it is the type used on the air pumps, it works perfectly! It fits tight on the switches and the caps become tight, they look great. I'll post another pic of my OH when I have fitted mine.

I have another Aussie 737 Captain visiting tonight, formerly Ansett, China Airlines and about to start at Cathay who don't happen to operate 737s so he has 6 months of training ahead of him, lucky b*#*ard! I can't wait for 7.30!

Today I posted caps by regular airmail to

PaulJ, Dctugno, RalphW, MPL330 & Shamrock, thanks guys.

Gwyn,

O.H. looks great!
So the toggle switches are sorted but which supplier did you use for the knobs (e.g. the engine start switches)?

Cheers
Mike
ps Thanks for posting the toggles

I bought the Boeing knobs from Engravity in their raw state, painted them and made the black line stickers by cutting them out of black duct tape with a trimmer knife. I'm pretty sure you need 26 of these for the O/H and MIP, they cost about AUD$85. I built my O/H for about AUD$360 most of that was for the switches.
