Amalynn Rolling Stock Kitbuild Challenge ‘24

[Amalynn]

Got some more work done this evening.



Got some advise from a friend for getting the truck screw holes centered. She recommended using a punch or dental pick to make a pilot dimple and prevent the bit from wandering. Tried that and got two successful holes drilled and threaded for truck screws.



Then I drilled two #74 holes and added this tiny molded plastic stake pocket detail.



Here’s the whole side done.



And here’s all 12 installed. I’m gonna let the glue dry overnight while I try to work out how I am gonna weight the car and try tp get weights installed tomorrow, followed by the brake detailing. Any suggestions on weight would be much appreciated.
