Wow! Your work on these "vintage" truck kits is amazing! Would you be able to do a tutorial video on how you make the "extra" details like your pogo stick for the hoses & lines behind the sleeper? Can't wait to see more of your truck builds. Tom S.
I am not great at video making and editing. Solder is soft, just wrap it around the handle of a small paint brush to make the spiral. Heat up some left over sprues with a lighter and stretch it, hold it straight till it cools for ten seconds. I use small pieces of cut sprue for the hose ends glued on with superglue. Just paint the airlines with red and blue paint. The pogo stick is from the kit, or easily made with some old sprue. I use very fine copper wire to hang the hoses. I use a lot of copper wires of different thicknesses to add wires and hydraulic lines to an AMT dozer I just finished I will do a video tomorrow.
