Good Day Folks!

I apologize if this has been asked or discussed in another thread. Is there a tutorial or a template for making a bracket for those "Floating" altenators in Revell kits? One takes the time to detail and wire the motor with plug wires, but these motors look odd having a alternator floating in mid-air.

Thanks in advance for any help,

-Steven

The alternators are not "floating" as the belt holds them up. LOL! I believe Model Car Garage has a bracket set, and there are also a couple of brackets in one of their engine detailing sets I believe also. Or maybe it's Detail Master that has the brackets(?) as I do have them somewhere in my "stash."

Photo etched brackets are the most correct for scale, but I have used very small strips of Plastruct and have been pleased.

You can get a little creative and make something simple out of Plastruct stock just as I did on this Olds engine.....
