Or none at all? Surley chained to ensure no movement in transit, or with a heavy shunt? Great work, as ever! Rich 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Regularity Posted November 25, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 25, 2020 If chained, there would be some form of shackle, like a screw-link coupling, to tighten it up - use maybe a 4mm scale item? 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky Posted February 20, 2021 Author Share Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) Today I made some modest progress on the weighing machine van. I laser cut all of the bracing pieces out of stout photo paper. I tackled the solebars first, drilling holes for the Masterclub bolts. I should say I first stuck a paper print of the bolt locations onto the solebar to indicate where to drill the holes. Then I stuck the bracing pieces on with a dot of superglue and lastly inserted the bolts. I’ve got the body sides to do next but I’ve run out of bolts!
