Drill the 13mm hole diameter for the cab window and the holes for the
axles (4mm diameter ) and the trailer coupling (3mm diameter ) before
any sawing any of the other parts. Prior to drilling the 13mm diameter hole
drill a 4mm pilot hole. The hole in the underneath of part (a) should be
countersunk . Any sawn parts should be cut out with a fretsaw and the saw
cuts cleaned up with a file ..Shape the axle carrier as shown in the plans and
round the corners off . You can leave this rounding off if you wish as is does
not affect the outcome of the project.
Please Note
When sawing it is important to ensure that the straight cuts are always as ac-
curate as possible. Use soft jaws when holding your the work in a vice . Mark
out any holes to be drilled with a scriber or pointed tool to make sure that
there is an indentation and the drill bit does not slip .
