More pictures - rivets, press and the power station.

After I see I can go well the second frame's time came.
It was in better condition so more parts came from.
Continue to sandblast and paint.

After having most stuff green we started to fix everything together with bolts and continue to press rivets.

Whole the assembly on a display.
Too unpleasurant step was sand blasting of ready rivet's heads. Had to mask them around with plastic film and paper band.
Primered them and coated acrilic olive drab as everything else.

Needed to remove whole the frame from the cold shed into the garage because the cold time came.
Now it looks like on the last pictures, ready to put it on the bogie

Wonderful to see your hard work Vlad... I don't think I have seen such a complete tear down before.

Thank you for the comment Keith,
I'm slowly making it up.
