1/16th scale revell kafer

Recommended Posts

I have decided to start the 1/16th scale VW Kafer however I want to model a roof rack for it kind of like the one in the photo below, I was thinking evergreen but that may be too week as I want to fill it full of stuff, I thought brass but my soldering skills suck, any ideas? 936055_689910721049865_1701219808_n_zpsd

I would use brass if it needs to bear weight. The main part looks like a relatively flat platform, so you could clamp the brass tubes as you solder them, minimizing your frustration. :D Add some rod inside the tubes for reinforcement at the joints...piece of cake.
