Re: 1968 McLaren M7A, Bruce McLaren. Model Factory Hiro, 1/20.
Hi,
Started to work on the instrument panel and tachometer/tacho connection. Angle gear is made of 2 parts of brass connectors, filed down and soldered. Not the best, but not too bad due to the fact that the part diameter is 0.7. The genuine hole in the tachometer is drilled with 0.5 bit, then filled with 0.5 lead wire.       Pascal |
