Not really toys
A few "TOYS" I made for a mate who use to drive trucks for a living and was struck down by a stroke 7 years ago aged 32.
No plans were used for these "toys". Under construction are 2 KW Aerodyne Customs all to the same scale 1:25 I think it is.
Will put up some pics next week, forgot to take the camera

The Crate comes off to make into a flat top

A Low Loader and Dolly with the KW SAR Prime mover this rig comes in at 1350 mm length

This also widens from 125 wide to 185 wide

If anyone is interested I can do some CAD drawings, as again no plans were used, just articles from magazine.
Enjoy

Thanks for the comments Guys. I don't know if I've told you before, but I failed wood work and metal work at school, my teacher said I'd never amount to anything, I also suffer from depression, so THANK YOU for the boost.
Several people have asked for plans, so will draw them up in A4 size, please let me know if you'd like a set and what trailer.
If members would like to donate $5.00 to Beyond Blue, that will cover costs including postage.
Regards

Just goes to prove, that some teachers aren't right because everyone has the potential to achieve
