				| Just wondering, those of you that have built a Sidkit, have you lubricated the moving parts whilst assembling? |

				| I've built several so far,  and the  best method is to lubricate  it  after completion,  as  you  would a 'real'  gun ,  and use a 'silicon'  based oil rather than 'gun oil or grease'  as that will  ensure no real wear on any of the  pewter components , a little drop of oil applied to all the  moving parts ( joints) will keep things in working order . If you are just  displaying your blaster, a little oil every couple of months will keep it in  good condition , along with a wipe over with  a damp cotton cloth , will keep it pristine looking. |

Thanks for all the advise, thought it might need a bit. |
