While building my Mississippi I found I am missing 2 little brass rivets that connect paddle wheels to shafts. While Occre will supply parts for free getting them has become a huge issue with “new” tariffs. It will end up costing me up to $20-25 to obtain them. I will try to come up with an alternate solution but if anyone has an idea or a part that will work I’d be grateful.
Thanks for reading. The parts missing are #248
