Pete Harvey Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 For the last couple of years on and off I have been working on a 7mm kit design for a customer.This is now finished and and my customer said in his own words "the more who see this will be amazed how good 7mm can be!!" the pictures are of the pre - production kit and yes there are a couple of minor errors which have been corrected for the production kit, the customer will be having the production kit .I will also be having some ISO Containers 3D Printed to go on the Wagon. The kit has Resin Cast bogie sides and resin brake blocks, the bogie sides have been designed so that the axle boxes are just that so there should be no problems with electrical shorts. The kit has a lot of cast brass parts including pivoting couplings and sprung buffers. Pete Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
