Heljan Class 35 'Hymek' Clear Glazing Sprue

[Tom F]

It's a long shot, but worth a go.

 

I've broken the head code glazing on my Class 35.

 

I've checked the spares on Howes site, and the sprue is currently sold out. I just wondered if anybody had a spare at all?

If all else fails, and I'm unable to obtain a sprue from Howe's (and nobody has a spare on here), would anybody have some advice for fabricating a new piece of glazing? (I'd contemplated buying another Hymek, using the glazing missing and then selling the other model as spare parts.....expensive way of doing it mind).

Shawplan do a set for the Heljan Hymek in their Lazerglaze range.

Tom - let me check my spares box. Some years ago, Heljan sent me some spare glazing for the Hymek, when some of the cab glazing fogged over, when I applied some masking tape during weathering. I wouldn't need the bit for the headcode box.

You can make one from a CD/DVD case cut to size. Cut it to just over the size you want then file down to the correct size.

Tom - problem solved. PM sent.
