Hi guys. I'm building the Miniart Tank Obstacles and I'm having trouble with them. They're made of three interlocking identical pieces. The first two are no problem but when trying to attach the third it won't fit. Like no way, not even close.

I'm sure I'm doing it according to the instructions. Does anyone have this kit? Did you have trouble?

Thanks guys.

I've recently purchased this kit and when it arrives, I'll let you know.

This part needs to slip under the other part as arrowed in white.


Then this bolt head will seem to get in the way. You'll need to manipulate it over and past this.


Uncleaned and dry-fit but it works. These photos show a lot of ejector pin marks to clean up.

Hope this helps...

That did it. Thanks again KoSprue. I was starting to think I'd have to find something else to fill the spot on my current dio.
