Centre foot shell temporary fix

A while back whilst trying to upgrade the centre foot wheel and it's platform, the unsupported section pushed up and broke the two top pieces off. I glued these back on temporarily, but the internals of the foot still make contact, pushing them off. So it's fixing time!

Well, temporary fixing time. For now I have had to screw two sets of screws in through the two top pieces into the resin that originally held them in place. I want to fix this properly after this weekends event.
screws need painting up to blend in.
I also made a tab locking washer to lock the nut in place and stop it from rotating, which also helped damage one of the top piece.
