By the way, if you have kit 6204 or 6150, know that parts N10 and N11 are template/spacers and NOT MEANT TO BE GLUED ON. The directions would lead you to believe otherwise.  Don't worry if you have however,  Several models that were in magazines had builders not recognizing the mistake either!  LOL

Yup--here's me making that bonehead mistake on a Nashorn--same parts, same mistake in the directions. Look this over and make sure you don't glue these parts in!

Either: The idler mounts were adjustable in reality -- that's what kept the track taut.  Leave it unglued until you get your tracks on.

Gentlemen,

I am working on this model by Dragon in 1:35. From the instructions, it is not clear how the idler wheel's axel should be mounted.

Should it be installed like this, perpendicular to the ground...

Or like this, tilted a bit backword, perpendicular to that strong point on the tank's body?

Thanks...
