 Subject:  DML BTR-80 - any comments?List thread.  
  
 Date:  Feb 4, 2001
 From:  Dave Williams 
Thinking about slamming together the DML BTR-80 kit and wondered if anyone
had any comments on building the kit. I have heard that the "rubber" tires
on DML's kits are too tight and will eventually split, but I picked up the
Mini-Art Studios resin wheels, so that won't be a problem. I also realize
the hatch hinges are overscale and open at the top to allow the hatches to
work, but that isn't too big of a deal to me. Anything else? Any comments
on the accuracy? TIA

Dave
