I just drilled a hole in one of my locomotive bodies for a detail part with a #76 bit, only to find I put it in the wrong place! [:(] Can anyone tell me of a way to “fill in” this hole so that it doesent ruin the model? Thanks, Kevin

Where is the hole?If it’s not in too conspicuoue of a spot some plastic compatable body putty squadron etc should do the trick. You’ll have to sand off the exess and paint the spot but other than that should be very fixable. TB

I would use some Evergreenrod that is a little bigger than the hole, dip it in liquid cement and jam it in the hole. Use your desprueing tool to clip it off at the body, it will hardly be noticeable.
