Nachoman's 2010 spring bash chalenge
#13
I filled in a few holes in the tank. The first were four oversize holes where the handrails went in. I found a think piece of sprue in my "bits and pieces of styrene" drawer that I could shove in the holes and glue in place. Once the glue sets, i will sand flush, spread with body filler, and sand flush again.

   

There were also two "chips" in one end of the tank. I don't know if they are actually chips or places where the casting didn't fill out all the way. I filed the areas of the chips flat so that I could glue on bits of styrene as patches. I will later carve the excess styrene and contour the patches to match the end of the tank.
