Product Description
This is a "generic" oil bunker to convert your coal tender to an oil tender. Overall dimensions are 55mm x 35mm, and can be modified to fit many medium-sized HO scale tenders. I am using this for both a Bachmann tender that came from the old 2-8-0 and some 0-6-0s and 2-6-2s, and also for a Mantua tender from a 4-4-2. The bunker is 1cm high, so you can cut/modify the sides/ends to fit. Note: This is a 5-piece kit so that all the rivet sides face upward when printing to allow maximum smoothness of surfaces and details. The pieces must be cut from their sprues and assembeled with super glue. Use a sharp razor saw to cut the sprue as diagonal cutters may crack the plastic. The top piece has two little ridges of sprue that remain on one side under the lip that fits over the side piece and must be filed/sanded off so that the side will fit in flush. I glued the long sides to the top first, then glued on the ends.
