| You
are nearly done with your engine!
Now you can attach detail parts to make
your engine a little more realistic.
Start by gluing on the link and pin
coupler pockets “AH” with epoxy.
When dry, use the #60 drill bit to make
pilot holes for the nut, bolt, and washer
castings “AI”. These
will be a press fit, but you may want to use
a |
| touch
of epoxy to be sure they don't fall out.
Next,
attach the poling pockets “AG” with
epoxy.
Finally, you can add the aquarium
charcoal “AF” to the coal bunker to
simulate full size steam coal. To hold it in
place, dilute one part white glue with two parts
water and add a few drops of dishwashing liquid.
Saturate the coal pile with this
solution.
When dry the glue disappears and the coal
remains in place.

| Take
a few minutes to go over your Project Engine and
make sure you have followed all the steps
presented in these pages. If you have, you
should now have an engine to be proud of.
Congratulations! |
