Re: Carson L634

Thanks ! I decided to leave the rear cylinders and rippers bare metal to show the "Uninitiated" that the model is not a toy ( well not a plastic toy).

Re: Carson L634

Re: Carson L634

Metal Ripper shanks required a little trimming to make them fit. They appeared to be made of Brass. Thanks for the comments;)

Re: Servonaut

I have had similar issues with likely the same operator. Gave the operator a second chance recently, but, same old stuff. Therefore, I deal solely with German suppliers. Takes a bit longer sometimes...
