M3 Washers….🙀🙈
Posted: Mon Apr 03, 2023 6:25 pm
Progressing quite well into my Pershing build…..
Sorting out all the hardware for next stage of build, came across a bag of M3 flat washers (164).. shock/horror… should I have put washers under ALL the M3 nuts I had already fitted….
Frantically checking all previous build pages could not find any reference to fitting washers under nuts.
Forward checked all remaining build pages and right on the last page that shows track construction found that each of the 82 ( X2) track sections has a pin/M3 washer and split pin.. so 82 times 2 = 164. ….. relief and panic over.. still on course here in the U.K.
(The bag of 164 washers is not listed on the fasteners page)
