Good morning.
45 with clouds here and rain later this afternoon.
I got one of the 4 Centipedes done yesterday. I glued a brass plate to the inside of the truck bolster that limits the horizontal axle play and acts to transfer the power from one wheel to the next. It does the job as a test run worked perfect. 1/4 inch horizontal play would translate to 21.75 inches so that is a bit excessive.
Have a happy new years eve eve.
