The 3D printing process requires a supporting frame during printing, see below. The printed part is
cut from the frame using flush cutters and this sometimes leaves small bumps on the part. Use a
knife with a sharp new blade to cut away the bumps. When trimming bumps off the wheels you
should place the wheel on a flat surface as shown below. Putting too much stress on the wheel can
cause the axle to break. For bumps on the cab body, sanding is recommended.
After cleaning up the bumps, paint the parts and apply the decals as shown on the painting guide on
page 2. When everything is dry, proceed to final assembly, using CAglue.
Important -The decals must be cut
apart (as shown on the right) just inside
the dotted lines before immersing them
in water.

Cut Out Decals
Painting Guide For Propane Bed
I airbrushed the bed flat white using Tamiya XF-2, then sprayed it with gloss coat before applying
the decals. I applyed paint to the signal lights, reflectors & spotlight using a toothpick. The fire
extinguisher was brushed painted gloss red. After the decals dried, I sprayed with glosscoat again to
preserve the decals.
