    Yeeehahhhh Pete's Wild West stagecoach build

    I am putting this one here as I don't think it has a place anywhere else.
    I have started some of it but there is still lots to do so here's some pics of what is done and what's leftover.
    I will carry on after my current 109 build.[ATTACH]328144[/ATTACH][ATTACH]328145[/ATTACH][ATTACH]328146[/ATTACH][ATTACH]328147[/ATTACH][ATTACH]328148[/ATTACH][ATTACH]328149[/ATTACH][ATTACH]328150[/ATTACH]

        Interesting subject.
        I would have thought civilian vehicles might have been an OK place, it is after all a bus. Albeit a very old one. Lol.

          I didn't think of it like that.

                While I seem to have developed problems with the 109 I thought I would have a go at putting together the wheels.
                I have had to highlight the formers so I know where to put the spokes.Click image for larger version

                    Peter.
                    Love the wheel assembly, most impressed with the whole idea of using wood as oposed to the normal plastic .
                    Shall follow with interest .

                      Hi Peter
                      Not seen anything like this before. You seem to be handling it well. Will you paint it or will you leave it in a natural finish?

                          I finally managed to finish all four wheels that's after I took the first one apart a few times before I cracked it.Click image for larger version

                              Really interesting kit, Peter.
                              I love to work over wood, good sensations and infinite weathering possibilities :upside:
