Did some work on my Slinky dog (moving along slowly).
As stated before I removed the wheel and a little plastic knob from the bottom of the feet so the foot will sit flat on the platform.
Had a problem as one of the feet were knocked off from the leg and JB Weld to the rescue (the foot is drying now).
Tonight I will fill the 4 square holes in with JB weld and the following day I will drill and tap it for a 2-57 screw.
The platform for the motor is done. This was my second attempt as the first platform was to thick and the c-clip could not fit on.
With the c-clip and the two metal knobs on the motor the plastic is held very secure.
I will post some pictures in a couple of days on the filling in of the holes and drilling/tapping/mounting the front paws to the platform.
Still have to find a boom car that I have (need the boom for something else) for the truck/coupler.
Question:
Would anyone know if Lionels traction tires would fit the K-Line S-2 wheels.
Found the k-line traction tires on line for $7.00 for 14 but the shipping and handling would bring the price to $19 and change.
