    I always draw the door out with a pencil an assemble the mirrors on that and then attach them as one unit. The AMT mirrors are usually a little beefy, sometimes I will make them using smaller rod. I like plastic rod better than metal because I can flatten the ends with plastic rod.

    Depending on the resin. I have found that soaking in bleach white (usually overnight), then scrubbing with a cleaning powder like Comet and a toothbrush is the only way to get paint to stick on some resin, especially what I call “milk jug” resin (white almost clear).

    Looking forward to seeing what you come up with on this one, especially the 57. I have one of these that I had hoped to build a replica of the truck that hauled the original engine for Tweetsie Railroad back in the 50s, but it is going to take so much work to get it right that I haven’t attempted it yet. I’m really looking forward to seeing what you do with this one!

    We put the old lint in a can separate from the garbage for later disposal. A ball of the old lint seems to lift stuck lint right off without any problems.

    Send me a pm when you have one available or I can keep an eye on Ebay. I won’t be starting this project for a few weeks. I have to finish the one I am on. Thanks for the response!
