Alan Grayer's 1910 Harley Model 6 in 1:7 scale

**DavidESP** · #1 02-06-2014, 02:53 PM

As promised in my previous Harley thread, I will post the build report for this one, as I could not find one on the forum.

This one is available on Alan's site, and consists of 2 PDF files, the parts and the instructions. The instructions for my part, are very comprehensive, and the parts pages (20 in all) contain both the model 6, and the 6A version combined in one file.

Due to running low on ink, I have only printed out part of the pages, to get started. The quality is the same as the Model 7A files, excellent.

Here are the first steps, the frame tubes:

Bent and in position:

Glued, and waiting on the fuel/oil tank for the rest of the pieces:

More as progress occurs.

Have a good one,
David

Until next time.

Hello all.
Getting started with the motor now.

The pieces:

Together:

A reminder, for the * items in the cylinder, the combined thickness of card and carton should be 1mm max and better if a little less for fitting the motor into the frame.

Moving on to the crankcase next.

Hello all and thank you Alan for the generous comment. The models design make the end product much easier to obtain.
