Thanks for sharing, never saw one done. I have to ask does the turntable go in more? or is that the way it lays?scubaski wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2018 11:32 pmI bought one and built it. My first try at one of these metal kits but I was impressed with the detail that went into it. Of course, it made for a real pain in the butt to make but I learned a lot. I think I am going to buy another one but that will paint it. They have a pic of the real truck on the package
The turntable is as low as it gets. There is a piece that you put on the underside that keeps its raised and has tabs that extend down in the hole on top of the truck and fold under the top to hold it in place and allows it to turn. The turntable turns and the ladder raises and lowers but does not extend and it will not raise and stay in place. All these pieces are flat and you have to bend and fold into shape and then there are tabs that either fold over or twist 90 degrees to attach the parts. The pics shown here with the ladder raised and turned, show a small metal tool holding the ladder in the raised position. Not part of the model.JoeO wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2018 12:50 amThanks for sharing, never saw one done.
