IS-3 Trumpeter - the handles

Nov 10, 2006 1 Replies

How did you attach the handles to the turret. Did you cut the bent wires? Or the better way is to drill holes?

If you are using wire to do the grab handles on Russian tanks, drilling through the turret gives you a tremendously strong joint. Apply superglue to the inside after you have the length you want exposed. Supergluing a piece of wire to a flat surface will be much weaker, and the handles will be easily knocked off, even you're drybrushing.
