I'm going to take a short break from finishing the trailer and start on the tractor cab. The crew cab doesn't look like it will be a problem, but all of those winches and stuff behind the cab looks like it's going to cause more brain damage to me. The details of all of that mechanical gear looks more like work than fun.

I lengthened the wheel base and widened the tracking dimensions to more correct dimensions. That was a hammer and hacksaw job and turned out ok. Now I get to start the cab. You guys may not hear from me for a few weeks (months?



I slapped together a rough cardboard parts pattern for a quick test to see how everything would fit together (it is very rough). The biggest goof that jumped out at me was that the cab was 15 mm too wide. Everything else fits pretty close and will be easily correctable when I measure twice and cut once.



If I send back all of the Bruder parts that got removed and will not be used, do you think Bruder would issue me a cash refund or credit on my next purchase?
