Default Dalton 42% Extra 260 - two parts left over ...

After the build is done, I have these two identical parts left over. Laser cut 1/4 inch plywood - about 14 inches long

Those look like the supports that mount just under the phenolic tube between the fuse side and the motor box. I was told they were added to the newer kits for extra strength in that area.

Yes sir hannah, that is correct. Had those braces left on the MEL 300 when it was almost finished, put them in though.

Man to only have 2 parts left after starting with that many parts is pretty good! Everytime I take something apart or build I always have lots of parts left over
