The
parts: Top, Front, Back, and Sides.
Not shown in the picture is a 1/4" X 20 T-Nut.
If you arrange the pieces on your work surface as shown it will be easier to follow the instructions. -
Take
the two inner sides and slip them into the back. The crenulations
all go up. -
Next
slip the inner front piece with the large round hole onto the assembly.
Again the crenulations all go up. -
Next
add the inner top piece. At this point the assembly will be some
what stable. -
Next
test fit one side. The sides are a tight fit, be sure to press the
side into the back as far as possible. -
Next
test fit the other side. The sides should close all the way flat. -
Take
the sides off and spread glue on the inner side. -
Install
the sides. -
Spread
glue on the front. Note, the front has three pieces; the inner one
has the large round hole, the outer one has engraving on it, the
middle one has 5 slots (two on each side and one on the top). -
Place
the middle front on the assembly. -
Spread
glue on the middle front. -
Put
the outer front on the assembly. -
Spread
glue on the top and place the top on the assembly. -
Spread
glue on the back. -
Place
the back on the assembly. -
Clamp
the assembly and let it dry. -
After
the assembly is dry, glue the T nut into the assembly from the inside.
I recommend a two part epoxy. Do not get any glue on the threads. -
You
can use many different types of 1/4" X 20 bolts to "clamp" the leg into the
leg pocket. Bolts are not included in the kit. Prawn Designs has Thumb Screws available for an extra charge. - Mount the leg pocket into your module.
- Setup your modules with some friends and run trains.
