Managed to knock up a front bogie for a Ja/ka that looked OK, and I thought was light/small enough to actually fit into the space that was required.
However, testing on an 18" radius curve revealed that there was not enough space around the cylinders in this model. And I had decided that i was not going to modify this mechanism as that has lead to hell quite rapidly in my previous experience. so all that soldering and filing for naught. grrrr
However the front pilot has been exchanged for a piece of brass to mount a Ja front end on.
