Connoiseur Models 2 compartment brake third coach

I had been going to make this kit my victim for the three way build but there are too many internal fixtures that will slow the build down whilst I grapple with how to form parts so have kept this for an individual build where I am not up against time. I've started cutting out members for bunks out of scrap etch and making them ready for laminating and shaping. they might work ..... they might not but again .... thats the whole part of it .... if it does not work out, i've not set myself back as far as keeping up with others goes.

I'm working with brass although admittedly, styrene would have been easier. However, the whole exercise is to try and get myself used to these fiddly little parts, soldering them without gunking them up etc. I can only try. if it doesn't turn out pretty ...... rough it shall be. no big deal.

cheers
