King tiger torro full metal IR

Post by desmo16 »

Hi everyone,
I noticed that on the bottom of my king tiger full metal torch there are some plastic details that come off very easily, on a product that sells for 600 € it's something that can't be ... I took some hot glue and all solved.

Mine was the same - found one loose in the box. As you say, a little Shoe Goo sorts the problem. That was the easy one to solve!

Personally I don't like details on the bottom of my tanks. They just get caught on stuff and most of the time you can't see them anyway.

Detailing l agree seems s bit pointless if it's never going to be seen but my personal issue is where you find controls protruding through the hull floor, such as on/off and switched controls, rotary volume controls etc. These are all vunerable to water and dust. It's good to see a strong trend to putting these in safe and easy to get to panels behind opening hatches.
