Uli's 908 parts

Post by daves »

I received a shipment of incredible detail parts from Uli in Germany. The quality is not to be believed. These are very small 1/12th half shafts for the MFH 908/3. I could not wait to start on them.
Uli provides very detailed instructions and a paint guide using AllClad paint. The pictures are before paint and after.

I second that. It feels like building the real thing made of the real parts. Only you're not using spanner, wrench or hammers but tweezers :)

Finished the half shafts today. They are amazing. The tiny bolts and nuts certainly taxed my old eyes. Now on to the distributor.

@Keith,
VR2 (post above Dave's latest set of pics) is Uli, just search through his posts and you'll find the original thread for these parts. ;)

Finished the distributor today. Another exercise in miniature parts. The detail of Uli's work is amazing.
