In this final entry we will look at how the arms are placed.

There was a casting flaw in the arm.  There were lots of bubbles and one of the cogs was missing a tooth.  To fix it I used a trick I learned years ago from a plastic modeling magazine.  First I cover the rough area with a coat of CA glue. Then a spritz of zip kicker and it hardens.  This is then sanded flat.  If you use fine enough sandpaper, you can get it smooth as glass.

Next we work on the right arm.  There were three little bits that took me a while to figure out were the fingers for this hand.

Great trick with the CA glue and sand paper.
