With a minimum radius of 9¾ inches, this model is compatible with various layouts.
Additionally, the Primed for Grime models feature a faded color palette that emulates the appearance of in-service equipment, making it an ideal starting point for those looking to add a realistic weathered look, complete with grime and rust details.
