DML workable tool clamp

Unless I am actually working on it, I cannot be exactly sure,,   but as I see it,      15 goes into the front holes of 19,,,, and 14 curls over the top into the back holes of 19.

I would guess some of the other folks have probably built this pup before and may be able to shed some more light than I have.

Wish you the best with it...........

Oh God, I hated that part!  While I was building my Dragon Marder II, it wanted me to make like 15-20 clamps like this.  I couldn't make one successfully after an hour... I never felt so frustrated.   I was told there are better aftermarket PE parts that contains only two parts instead of three like this.

However, I found a trick that helped me a bit... I would glue the part #15 on the hull or turret first using CA.  After allowing it to try enough.  Go ahead and glue the tools on then you can glue part #14 on top of the tools.  Finally you can add that P-I-A part #19 easily to the clamps already secured on the hull or turret. 

Hope this helps...

An hour!? You are a stronger man than I.

I like your idea though, and I will most deffinetly do that.

Thanks!

Usually the problem for me seems to be the allignment of the pins on 14 and 15 with the holes on 19. I can never bend them so that the spacing (between 14 and 15) is correct. So what I normally do is bend 14 and 15, then gently shave the pins off of 14 (the pins that would normally go into 19)... then I put tiny CA drops under the tabs on 15 (the tabs towards the right side of the picture), and join 14 and 15. Then I bend 19 (slightly wider then it needs to be so i can close it around 14 and 15), then I apply glue to the inner side of the ends of 19, and pinch it around 14 and 15. HTH!
