Paul hd Posted April 30, 2016 Report Posted April 30, 2016 (edited) Hi All,Got this plan from Toymakingplans.comVery well set out plans and easy to follow.I didn't have any hardwood so I made this one with ply. The thickest ply I had was 9mm so I had to do a little bit of gluing to get the correct thicknesses.Added a little colour with chestnut stains and put the steering wheel on the right as this was made in England:-)This particular model is one horse power.

LarryEA Posted May 1, 2016 Report Posted May 1, 2016 .That is a cute one. I want to know if you cut an outline of the horse as your backer? Can't see thru the cuts on the horse, so what is that backer? Paul hd 1 Quote
