Sn3 Boxcar Build (Part 3)

I've learned something practical about myself.  If I start a project and let a week pass where I don't work on it, the chance of me finishing that project drops dramatically.  So even if I don't invest a lot of time in something, I at least try to put in a few minutes every 2 or 3 days.

There's been a lot going on.  But I managed to sit down with the kit tonight.


The instructions say to use a file and file down the roof to match the body.  It was a bit tedious, and on the "B" end of the boxcar, quite a challenge to not let the file drift and hit the door or door rail.

That was the end of step 1.  I began on step 2, which is focused on the handgrabs.  I've got the holes drilled on both long sides.


That's it for now.
