graham Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 ;)that is looking very good garret i thought you was busy it looks the nuts mate ;D just a thought mate if you steam that wood it will bend where you want it but you would have to leave in the jig to cool so you might need more than one jig but with steam it will go where you want \ \ but you are on it big style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd only notice the difference though if you put the model up in comparison to the real thing so I'll see how it clads out. Have to say though the hardest part was making up the jig took a lot of measuring and cutting to get each section correct :'( lots of frustration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks John C, a bit of work alright, I'm building from the wagon roof down. Had to form the curves first and it's working out to be a difficult way about doing things. At the mo I'm fixing the roof to the uprights and so far so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
