Richrua's workbench

Nice job.

 

Hi Noel it's the dapol prestwin chassis , 12ft, which comes with the SSM kit. I used super glue. The primer is plastikote grey primer which seems to work well on brass.

 

Thanks, did the primer go straight onto the brass or did you have to wash/rub it down?

Gave the brass a quick rub with a damp cloth (lint free) . The finished article looks better with your duck test , Noel, rather than the extreme closeup above!

Thanks for the info. Your success has inspired me to have a go with the SSM brake van. Btw, the finished article looks really great so the 'duck test' is not needed one bit.

I've layed and sliced the track in the key areas. Has kept alignment. Next step wiring.
