Brian's 7mm Diesel Workbench, Belated up-date!
Ian G replied to brian daniels's topic in Kitbuilding & Scratchbuilding
I looked at mine some time ago, the only way i thought to improve them is with an etch add on kit, then you can have an articulated bogie, with possible rotating bearings. cut out the spring detail or 3D the bogie side frame and etch the rest. Your thoughts on this Pete Harvey? Ian G -

My next wagon build is an ABS ex LMS 40t bogie bolster, I have lost the instructions so the build is by drawings and photos, I have only found one with a vac pipe on the outside as I want to produce a later model. The bogies in the kit are a bit fiddly so I have opted for some from MMP.
