First of all I made the timber beds from balsa woodFirst of all I made the timber beds from balsa wood
having positioned the bed on the tank, I measured the gap and added 2mm so that the 0.5mm brass rod I cut would sit in the bed where I predrilled holes (just in front of the tank glacis plate). I then made a balsa template to get the next two rods in the correct position. this was a bit of a mistake, as I should have left a gap so that I didn't glue the rods to the template!! having positioned the bed on the tank, I measured the gap and added 2mm so that the 0.5mm brass rod I cut would sit in the bed where I predrilled holes (just in front of the tank glacis plate).

Having stuck the rods to the template, I then blue tacked them in place so that I could glue them properly.Having stuck the rods to the template, I then blue tacked them in place so that I could glue them properly.
