Pack 12, Assembling components for the back

[Mark A]

Pack 12 will wrap up this outstanding build.

 

Start by finding the 2 TR-12-54 and 2 TR-12-146 parts. Assemble these as shown, paying close attention to the tabs on the end of part 146. then, slide the assembly into part TR-12-115.

 

Follow the above by adding parts TR-12-91 & 92 and secure these with a 2.3 x 6 screw. Step 4 adds TR-12-114 and 2x TR-12-146 to the assembly.

Step 5 creates a new sub assembly with TR-12-93, 77, and 76, all of which are fixed into place with 2 PB 2.3 x 6mm screws. This is mated up with the previous assembly with two more 2.3 x 6 screws.

Lastly, the two TR-12-56 parts are glued onto the assembly.

 

For the next steps you'll need the battery compartment, and parts TR-12-116 and 140. Run the cable of the battery compartment through the aperture in part 116, then attach the switch, fixing the switch with 2 2 x 4mm screws.  ( I neglected to photo this part...)

The next steps are for a couple body panels. You'll need TR-12-75, 47, and 113. to start. Assemble these as shown then repeat for the other set. In step 11, you'll need TR-12-171 (x2) and a good CA glue. glue the steel plate into the recess.

Now, you'll screw these 2 body panels to the battery box with 4 2.3 x 6 screws, after which 2 magnets will be glued to the battery box cover.

Assembling components for the head

 

We start by pressfitting the front half of the neck into place, followed by the rear half which is ecured with one PB 2x6 screw.

Next is the speaker box. gather the components and sandwich the speaker between TR-12-64 & 65, with TR -12-164 fixed to the magnet on the base of the speaker. the speaker box is held together with 4 2.3x6 screws.

The next parts to go on are the neck pivot bracket and the pivot itself.  These are followed by placing a pivot into the neck assembly on the head itself. Now, using TR-12-61 & 62, secure the head to the speaker assembly with 1 PB 2x6 screw.

Next on to the growing head assembly are 2 brackets, TR-12-118 & 119. These are held in place with 2.3 x 6 screws.

The last components to go on are 2 detail skin parts that cover the speaker. These two pieces are secured with 6 2.3 x 6 screws.

Using the assembly from the start of the pack, locate TR-12-04 and 2 2.3x6 screws. Screw the assembly to 12-04.

Next, using the assembly from the stage we just completed, screw this to Tr-12-04 as well, with 4 2.3x6 screws. Now, locate TR-12-05 & 06, and screw these to the assembly.

Lastly, using parts TR-12-94 & 95, add these 2 detail parts to the back assembly.
