Title: MMM Rowangarth Help
Post by: over_powered84 on October 25, 2009, 02:52:22 pm
Hey Guys For Sometime I've Been Building A Scale Hobbies Elder/Rowangarth Tug Kit As Brilliant As The Tug Kit Is  I Decided After My Kort Stocks Got Bent Miraculously Within 24hrs To Replace Them With MMM Korts, Got Them Finally At The Blackpool Show Only To Try Them The Other Day And Find Out I'll Have A Hell Of A Lot Of Modifying Just To Fit Them
I Was Hoping Some Of You Guys Who May Have Built The MMM Kit Would Have Pics Of How Your Korts, Shafts Etc Go Together At the Stern As I Have The Pewter "Z Drives" From Scale Hobbies But Unsure How MMM Do Their Kit <:(

That'd Be Fantastic Steve :-)), Are Any Korts Fitted Similar To How The Scalehobbies Setup Is With The Pewter "Z Drives", It's An Adjustment I Need To Make To This Setup With The MMM Korts As When Fitted Scalehobbies Korts Were Fine But Within 24hrs They Got Bent Mysteriously Hence Why i'm Replacing With MMM Korts
I Hope This Makes Sense :((
