Begin basic hull preparation and measuring up before cutting holes for running gear
|
| As advised on the modelboatmayhem forum - its not safe to rely on the MMM castings marks for Korts, P-frame or Prop shafts, best only for an approximation. |
|
|
|
| Using some setsquares I set up a couple of parallel lines for the prop shafts and true enough the casting marks were a few mm out. |
|
|
|
| Holes made with a small pilot drill and then opened up with a stepper drill. |
