Title: 1/4 Scale #2 Drip Oiler
Post by: cheepo45 on March 29, 2015, 08:09:50 PM

Hi Everyone,
 I have been working on a 1/4 scale oiler for my Gade engine.
This has been the most challenging part of this build.
There are many very small "fiddly bits".
I have a mark on my forehead from wearing my Optivisor a lot!
Here are some pictures of the parts and the completed oiler.

That turned out very well Scott. Will make a nice detail addition to the Gade too!

Very, very nice Scott!
How would we do such things without an Optivisor or the like?  :thinking:

Nice accurate rendition, Scott. Like the flip top.....soooo tiny. Good work. Paul

Thanks for the compliments!
The hardest part of making small parts is figuring out how to hold them!
I hope to see as many of you as possible at the Cabin Fever show.
