Construction
Folding battery box and chassis cover plate.
First of all, fold up the etched brass battery box and chassis
cover plate as shown above and paint them as required. Note
that all half etched fold lines should be to the inside of the fold.
All painting is left to the builder and Acrylic paint is readily
available in spray cans for a good finish. A good primer is
essential and, if available, an etch primer should be used on
brass parts. A good model shop will stock more specialised
paints and should include etch primer in the range. Read
carefully and follow the maker’s instructions that appear on
the can before using any paint. All parts must be thoroughly
cleaned and rubbed down with fine wet and dry paper prior to
painting.
