Thanks Vince,
I had decided against the Armortek supplied bin quite early on and purchased a set of upgrades from Sixth Scale Icon. My soldering skills are not up to building the brass kit so went for a 3D printed alternative as I have a lot more experience with such upgrades.

Great details as always. Really like the bin.
Best regards,

What size rivets are you using on the bin?

Hi Bob,
Many thanks for the kind words.

Hi Damon,
I am using the rivets supplied with the Sixth Scale Icons kit (1/8" x 0.032" dome head). I have also used some 1/32" x 1/4" brass round head from BA Bolts in the area around the pocket for the rear lift lug. They have a slightly smaller head but the difference is not obvious here. I want to make sure I have plenty of dome head available for the front and sides of the bin. The carpet monster really likes them . They fly really well if not picked up correctly...
