Hi Monica


It's nice to catch a build from the start so I will also be following.


I can learn a thing or too from this.


Hope all goes to plan with the next stage of the build and great stuff so far

 

[monica]

so glad to have you along Stuart,hope you do enjoy the build,

 

[monica]

wheels on last night so left to curer ,


starting to get that kittie look about it,


will be busy for a couple of days so will be a slow start to the tracks,3x 75,of the little,things


why 99 on one side and 100 the other, I have no clue,


what I do plan is to start each side,and have them ready for gluing,as I will be able to glue the long bottom,part


of each side,so that will be of some help,but to get the bend around the drive wheel,and front wheels,will need


to be done when Im,not busy,so that I can bend,them after the glue has hold,but still movable,


once I start Iwill show you how I,do it and find it very quick and easy,so stay turned,off to start cleaning up lots and lots


of bits before I need to go out,.......not fair,


just hope that the pussa do,t jump up or play with them,
