Another hours work this evening has the van almost finished.
First up the w irons were soldered onto the padding pieces, a combination of low melt and normal solder depending on the size of the packing piece (some were the thickness of the w iron, others twice the thickness.
With this in place I noticed an error on the floor (the wonderful thing with white metal being how easy it is to unsolder and fix a mistake.). With this done it was time to add the brakes, gas tank, and vac cylinder.
Finally the brackets were added for the DC brakes at the only part of the kit that has had a poorly fitting part.
Strangely looks misaligned in the photo, the camera playing tricks I think
Remaining:
Roof
Brake linkages
Springs / axleboxes
And with the above done add the steps.
