I made a Toy Train for the Community Fundraiser
I made a Toy Train for the Community Fundraiser
I used an old Wood Magazine plan as a be and have made it stronger along with more playable.
The carriages are 8" [200mm] and 9" [225mm] all using "scrap wood / Off cuts" from my furniture maker friends Living Timbers in Penrith.
All the axles articulate with shop bought wheels & axle pegs.
Thank goodness for Starboand CA which made the assembly so much easier.
Something like a 25 - 30 hour project.
