    That looks great. Love the combination of the woods.

    Toys and Joys do some good plans they are just getting hard to find this side of the world.

    I think you may need to build some smaller/lighter models until you are fully recovered and back up to full speed !!

    Excellent choice of timbers; love the detail on the tyres.
