| Subject: | T-34 movable suspension | |
| Date: | Feb 20, 2001 |
| From: | Barry Gazso | |
Hi folks,
I have a Jaguar resin movable suspension set and am going to put it on a T-34/85 I'm building for a diorama. Obviously I'll be having the tank in a posture that will show the suspension "sprung".
My question is, what kind of adhesive can I use that will give me enough time to position the roadwheels in the rubble, but will hold well enough to let the spring pieces stay put? epoxy doesn't have enough "tack", and super glue is instant. This has really got me baffled.
Oh, one more thing. The DML kit, which is made to sit level, has the springs almost at the bottom of the hull. I assume that if a couple roadwheels are sitting lower than the rest, the springs would literally protrude below the hull?
Thanks,
Barry |
