I got more than I bargained for when I picked up this Cast kit of a Ford LNT tractor, good thing it was only $2
The casting molds weren't tight and spewed a lot of flash out, which was in terrible spots (the door handle) so filing it off was a pain, the roof didn't have enough material on top so i had to file much of it down to make it even, the instructions don't make sense, the picture diagram is horrible, the frame was bent to hell, I could keep going but I still worked on it, but it was the worst so far. Had to make a lot of modifications to it so things would fit and I'm still not done! I actually contemplated throwing it out a few times
So what was your worst model you ever built?
