Masokits do the etches. Hi Jonathan Returning to the subject of the SR 12T Ferry Vans, I note that the Masokits etches for the Monarch brakes are for a 10' wheelbase (part no.2.02), whereas these vans have a 9' wheelbase. Did you have to adapt the etches very much in order to get a reasonable result? Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwealleans Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Blimey, Tony, that's over 10 years ago. I can't remember what I had for breakfast.... Luckily in those days I was still keen and took lots of photographs. The relevant post is on page 4 of my workbench. Enjoy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Tony Teague Posted January 27, 2021 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 27, 2021 Thanks Jonathan Your pictures and narrative are very helpful. How far I go to achieve total accuracy will be open to question, but I'll at least make an attempt! Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Tony Teague Posted February 7 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted February 7 I was reminded of this thread by something that happened today, and that has prompted my working through it an replacing all of the images that were lost in the "great RMWeb image debacle" of a couple of years back. It is, however, disgraceful that in the last 3 years I have managed to achieve ZIPPO in terms of this project - although I do realise that it is because my efforts lay elsewhere - so I think that I must charge myself with doing better in 2024 and re-engaging with my Continental Ferry Van projects! Now to work out where I will find the time............. Tony 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
