Friese 16t in 1/72 scale

 

Kit producer: EXTRATECH
Scale: 1/72
Type of kit: resin castings & brass etched parts

The Friese 16t crane is really crazy kit by Extratechu because it’s more brass etched kit with few resin parts to complete that resin kit with etched parts. I has supposed that assembly of this kit will be terribly complicated before I started to do it by then I have found that work with big brass parts is very simple /similar to work with paper cutout/. In fact you don’t have to cut out anything. You just have to carefully follow instructions because if you bend brass part to incorrect position it can simply break when you will try to get it right.

I also recommend you to reinforce all bends and connections with second glue /like when you do soldering/.

The result you will get is impressive. Only I have to do is to hitch some burden on.
