You'll be in for a long ride following this one. It's a LOT of work getting these kits to fit together and look presentable. I've seen some amazing builds of these things but man, it's going to take some dedication to getter done. I'll definitely be working other things in between sub-assemblies. mtaylor, Old Collingwood, Ryland Craze and 5 others 8 Quote Completed Projects: USS Fletcher 1:144 Scharnhorst 1:350 USS Independence LCS-2 1:350 1:32 J7W1 Shinden Interceptor/Fighter Fairey Swordfish Mk.

Well, it wouldn't be fun without some challenges. The model is designed to fit together with machine screws but lots of massaging is required to make that happen. I can see why some of it goes together with screws as it's necessary to fit, adjust, refit, then rinse and repeat. Some of the engine internal working features seem unnecessary as once it's all completed, they will never be seen. From everything I've read, getting all the chassis parts, drivetrain and body panels to fit will be a real challenge.

CDW Posted July 25, 2023 Author Share #35 Posted July 25, 2023 The supercharger screws to the side of the engine block and hooks up with the intake. When you dry fit the head to the engine block, you find that the head does not seat properly to the block and needs to slide forward about 2 or 3mm. In order to do this, the holes where the screws go through the engine block to attach the supercharger must be elongated to allow the blower assembly to slide forward those few MM to allow the head to fit the block.

Landlubber Mike Posted July 26, 2023 Share #36 Posted July 26, 2023 Nice job Craig. Do you think you need to use all the screws in the kit? Can't some pieces be glued together? I have a few Pocher kits in the stash and heard about the fit problems, especially with the screws, but had always wondered whether you can bypass screws with glue.

That's a good question but I really don't know for sure at this point. From what I've read, it's not unusual to have to go back, disassemble, refit, and reassemble various sub-assemblies as you're moving forward with construction of one of these. I've read this is particularly true of the chassis and body panel assemblies. Every single screw location needs to be drilled out, then threaded before assembly. It seems to me some glue is going to be essential and maybe lots of it could be glued together and use no screws but certainly not all of it.

I have a few Pocher kits in the stash and heard about the fit problems, especially with the screws, but had always wondered whether you can bypass screws with glue. to get the engine block firmly seated on the divide along the center of it, glue is going to be required. Same for the cylinder head, front crank/engine block housing, as well as the oil pan. Not sure why I should add the internal parts except that the crankshaft needs to be there. The rods, pistons, and cylinder sleeves will never be seen once the engine is complete and mounted on the chassis. I am still waiting on the parts I ordered from ModelMotorcars. Hope this isn’t the normal waiting period from them.

yvesvidal Posted August 8, 2023 Share #43 Posted August 8, 2023 My feeling is that these moving pistons and crankshaft are more for the pleasure of the builder than anything else. It is a little wink to the mechanically inclined and is a legacy of most Protar kits which had some kind of moving parts. Protar in the good old days, produced a Moto Guzzi V7 (1/6 scale) that had all kinds of working features, including the engine, gearbox and transmission as well as some electrical features.
