7.5: Phlatt Car Trucks
05/16/06
Started tackling the trucks for the Phlatt Car (blue body and Adirondack chairs to the left). Built a 10-foot section of track (on flat ties) for the workbench. All the truck parts are pictured on the rails. Kit by Plum Cove Studios.
Bolsters and archbars in the foreground. Journal boxes to the right. Wheels, axles, bearings, and nuts and bolts in the back.

Wheels, axles, bearings, and nuts and bolts.
Two deep-socket drivers were called for, but a regular wrench could reach in down the length of a bolster (and hold itself!).
Ready for the springplanks...
