Bob, that is beautiful. great build – You are right, it’s yellow. I think I would like to have seen a few black accents to break it up

Wow! What a magnificent machine Bob! When I saw your name on it I was a little puzzled it’s totally away from your usual work. So much detail makes me wonder if I could ever have the patience to make something that complicated! Great job!

-- St Augustine FL, Experience is the sum of our mistakes!

As you indicated, it’s quite a switch from your previous projects, but it’s fun to try something new. Really nice work.

Thanks so much for the comments. It really was fun, well, most of the time.
Cheers

Bob

-- Bob, Western Australia, The Sun came up this morning, what a great start to the day. Now it's up to me to make it even better. I've cut this piece of wood 4 times and it's still too damn short.

Great Job.

Great job!!!
This is not a simple project but love the way the tracks really get a chance to shine with the yellow back ground.
As you’ve found out the tracks are a project by them selves but when it’s done, you know you’ve built something special.

Great job Bob. It is a little different project than your norm but a beautiful one at that. I bet there were a few headaches.

I’m also one that is not overly fond of painting these type of models… the paint hides the fact that it’s timber and could be plastic underneath… it also mutes (potential) contrasting timber… but we all know better.

Nice job BobW... despite my comment on the paint, it does tie it in with the actual vehicle.

Paint or no paint, you can’t hide the great job on the tracks.

-- If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD

Beautiful job. A great paint job.
