Got you. May be some thread lock / super glue on the screws and some Red Hylomar around the glass. www.amazon.co.uk/Hylomar-HYTR100-040M-Hylotyte-Red/dp/B00JM4PVPO/ref=asc_df_B00JM4PVPO/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=310513207083&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=8568049747174918950&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1007097&hvtargid=pla-454253624833&psc=1
I got the kit 3 days ago and she's assembled It was truly a fun experience However the pipe work was awful Was damn near impossible to fit the main steam I ended up anealing the egsast to help it get into the smokebox I suspect, now that i think of it, the frame where the steam chest sits on could've been bent slightly But further than that she's a great little engine And will be carrying the name Ansie
@@CB-RADIO-UK i thought i did lol In the video i made i did say how its a nightmare and how you have to kinda force things While having in big letters do not force lol The other thing is they weren't very clear about alot of things Such as the main steam

Hi. Yes that main steam pipe is a NIGHTMARE to get the threads lined up. I really thought i was going to strip mine.
