    Default Another "First prize" for Jim

It is finished in Wattyl polyurethane satin,two coats. The wheels are red cedar, there is some southern maple, silver ash, the cab & guard's are possibly niger. A timber I have never heard of, it was given to me by a neighbour & really nice to work with.Next project is a t/j pattern of a road grader, to be started soon.Happy Easter to everybody.Cheer's Jim

    Man looks really nice Jim. I can't believe your already done. You pop these things out just like Bobman does. Speaking of Bobman I have seen him posting but no new builds.

    Default rough and bouncy

    Jim them rigid hitch scrapers were rough as anything to drive You really needed your seat belt on. Cushion hitch models much better. ...... Nice job you did on it.
