Hi All,

Found these pictures of a Fire Engine that rolled out of the workshop a little while back now.

Made from a free plan from Aschi's Workshop (http://www.aschisworkshop.com/), using 51mm (2") single tread wheels and 54mm Axle Pegs from WoodenJoys (http://www.woodenjoys.net/) (where the plan is also available for free download).

The fire engine measures approx. 31cm (L) x 10cm (W) x 10cm (H).

All parts are made from a mix of pine and plywood, with birch hardwood wheels and axle pegs. All finished in non toxic acrylic paint and varnish.

For those interested, WoodenJoys is holding a 10% off sale this Easter Long Weekend - whilst stocks last (no rainchecks) check website for details.

While the painted fire engine does look good..... I still prefer the natural timber look....
