Craig,
Doggoneit, he has a Heljin roundhouse. That is very interesting about the Walthers. Usually their Cornerstone products are very good. I would like to know the same thing you asked about. Whether you may have gotten a unique bad kit or whether this problem is pervasive in the kit.
If this thread starts to move to the distant pages, bump it back every now and then.
Sorry I couldn't help you.
Bill
PS: You know as an after thought why don't you call Walthers and see if they will accept a return. I ordered a turntable from them several years ago and it was way beyond my modeling abilities. I returned it and got a credit with no problem at all. They were very nice about it.
