18 WHEELERACA General Instructions FG CC Startby cutting materials needed using the List of Materials on pages 64 and 65. Pay attention to the rough and finished size, and identity parts as they are cut. Please note: Different types of wood can be used for the various parts. It is suggested, however, that hard wood be used since many of the parts would be much too fragile if using soft wood. We have used a combination of Maple, Pine, Oak and exotic woods such as Padauk (dark wood), Yellowheart (light colour) and Mahogany (dark wood) to give the models a nice contrast! Ee Parts B1 to B18 are already complete. Parts B19 to B26 will need a few more steps. See the Parts Drawing section on page 66 for more details. Parts B27 to B34 require removing the Full-Sized Patterns sheet found on page 115 of the Appendix. Cut out the patterns, leaving approximately 1Vsc" all around, and place on the proper piece of wood. Pattems can be secured to the wood using either spray adhesive or rubber cement. If using the latter, cut and sand the part first to finished size. If drilling is required, mark the hole by inserting an awl or nail through the pattern into the wood. Remove the pattern before drilling Bee Follow the assembly drawings on pages 68 to 70 to complete your model. Please note: In order for this model to move properly, itis recommended that you apply a lubricant to wheel shafts and axle block holes. Lard is the cheapest and safest option. Itis non-toxic and found in most louseliulds. 62aA iTt(1g Detailed DrawingsBAe 64 List of Materials Part Description at. | T WwW L Material * B1 Cabin Front 1 vet | 19" | aie Oak F B2 Roof 1 un 3" 2M" Oak F BS Wheel Shafts 5 fe" dia. 3%" | Maple Dowel} F Ba Bumper Support 1 yet 1c" 1" Maple F BS Floor Boards 2 Ve" ae 7a" Dark Wood F BS Mufller - Top Pieces 2 he dia. 2" |Maple Dowel} F B7 Rear Bumper 1 Ya" fe" Oak F BB Headlights 2 ve’ | se" | 96" | Light Colour} F BO Flashers & Brake Lights 4 ‘s" vs" Ve" Dark Wood F B10 Mirrors 2 veh | we 1" | Dark Wood | F Bi Trailer Frame 1 5a" a 16" Maple F B12 Trailer Sides 2 ve | awe | asus Oak F B13 | Trailer Back & Front 2 vet | 2 | 3 Oak F Bt4 Top Frames 2 ver | vet | 16" Maple 5 B15 Top Frames 2 we | tae st Maple F B16 End Braces 4 vw’ | ve | 2m | Maple F BI7 Braces 4 me ys" 24" Maple F B18 Trailer Hitch 1 af dia. 7k" | Maple Dowel] F Bio Main Frame A: ae 2'" 102" Maple F | B20 Hood 1 156" 3" 2M" Oak £List of Materials Part Description aty.| T Ww L Material | * B21 | Axle Block - Front Wheels | 1 1" 1" | 2%" | Maple F B22 | Axle Blocks - Rear Wheels | 2 ae t iy Maple F B23.
