Loco Kit (4) - starting on the tender...

How many bits for the tender. ! It too me a while to work out which bits went where.  The kit instructions say 'all parts cut to the size required' - well not quite, so a bit of sanding and fettling done to get things ready. I had one bit which was the wrong length, it was easy to cut a new one from some plasticard.

The basic tender top made up....

tidied up and the top section added with some beading.....
I checked the parts for the tender underframe; these were not all cut quite to matching lengths, so more fettling done and construction started....
