I've now started on a wagon kit.....
It's all a bit scattergun while waiting for stuff. This Parkside kit was an impulse purchase to keep me occupied, Following instructions, I did the axleguards first and glued them to the solebars. The two grooves in the floor for the solebars were too narrow so were opened out...
Once glued in place, the chassis was set up between books while it dried out overnight...
Assembling brake gear with pincers, wagging tongue and Mekpak took a while even though I played safe and drilled out all the holes oversize. While most of the instructions are to one orientation, the brakegear drawing is
upside down. I doubt it is assembled correctly...
Then I came to the joker in the pack. At no point was Part No.3 mentioned. Part No.3 happens to be the chassis frame!!!
The framework was cut into 6 parts and glued to the floor. I glued it upside down, not that the drawing showed there was a flange on one side! It gets worse. The parts are numbered on the sketches but are not numbered on the sprue.
