| Blue Jacket also produces small hinges. These are the smallest they have. You can easily compare the sizes. I may use them for a larger scale model someday |

| You can see their scale from comparing my finger and tweezers. Very inexpensive |

| Finished results. The small indentations, are from my previous attempts using rub-off letters without much success. With the self-adhesive letters, the small dents are barely noticeable. The engine cover was already glued in place. So that precluded any chance of redoing the whole cover. Stuff happens.... |

| I carefully laid down the "holed" letters onto a sheet of paper. Using a rattle can of Temiaya Olive Drab, I sprayed the letters. After they were dried, I carefully lifted them off the sheet. Because they're self-adhesive, I simply stuck them into place. No glues, no mess. I could even relocate them into their final place, if necessary |
