Hi guys!
I made a little How-To on stretching sprue.
It's a old school trick, but I know that there are people that find it difficult to do, so I hope this video will help them a bit.

Thanks Frans - I tried your method last night and after only 5 tries, got 3 nice antennas for my Stug III and Panzer III - your method works a treat!

I use bits of fibre optic taken from a old fibre optic lamp my daughter had, they are about 20cm long and nice and bendy.
