Too Cool Ross,
You've definately bit off more than I can chew, although a strip built at model scale will certainly be my first strip built. It's tough working in small size, but it's nice to be able to wrap masking tape around the whole deal without going thru rolls of the stuff. Good luck to you on your stripping, can't wait to see your progress.
