back to the MOK 8F

After a short interlude to finish of building a Gauge 1 Warship that was started way back in 2017 I am back on the 8F since attending Guildex last weekend.

I started by replacing the wrong handed upper lamp iron.

Then I folded the bends on the tops and fronts of the two MOK replacement welded sides and added the handrails. I also took the time while they were accessible to file the tails of the handrail knobs and the wire of the rear ones flat.

With that done I marked up where the solid bits were on the tender cage so that when I solder them on I apply the heat in the right place.
