Tip from an old modeler: use some electrical tape cut into thin strips to use as tie downs. On one of my HO scale loads I used black thread and tied it to the stake pockets. Cheers from eastern TN

Thanks for the tip!

Definitely a good idea. Good way to make a nice load and not pay anything for it. Turned out great. The weathering and add ons to the car look good too. Nice job. 👍

Thanks for the kind words. It was fun to troubleshoot the build.

I'm always on the lookout for discarded items I can use on my layout. Awesome video.

I have a bunch of these tubes too. Now I know what to do with them. Thanks for sharing.

And by watching this you now know what not to do! If I can impart anything it’s always what not to do. 🤓

When trying to glue something like that in the future, If you use some 3d printer resin and a UV light, it will cure hard instantly and stick anything together!
