Some of the pipes/hoses on the m1070 are corrugated. Trying to find corrugated pipes in 1/35 is hard.

So, I bought a miniature tape a die set and ran my copper wire through the die plate. This leaves a thread on the wire giving a corrugated look. And with there being multiple different sizes on the die plate, I can make up different sized pipes!

Coming along nicely!
Neat trick with the die set for the hoses, I'm gonna pick up one of those myself. Lots of DEF lines and wire loom in my future...
