E-paw's EOY challenge.
#66
I added some more of the finishing touches to the K-1 this afternoon.I wanted to add one of those classic railroad oilcans to the model.While I was at the LHS the other day I couldn't find any that I liked, so, Lets scratch one from brass. It was a very simple job I just soldered a brass wire into a hallow brass tube for the body of the can.    

I sanded the solder blob to a cone shape, drilled 2 holes in the side, and glued in a handle bent from the same wire as the spout.    

So there it is, not to hard at all. Off to the paint shop it gos.     Just for a sense of scale the spout and handle is .016 wire.
