    Just found a dump truck plan:

    Google has not enabled direct printing. You can zoom to see more detail of the page. There is a full screen button upper left.

    Use the Print Screen (prtsc) button on your PC (right of the F12 key) to copy the page and then paste the image into Microsoft Paint, Adobe Photoshop or like for trimming and print out. It works okay.

    To paste use ctrl and V at the same time.

    Thanks Scott, I'd done a screen print & past into work but your "pdf" is easier.

    Well Scott I hope the approval goes through ok with the Minister For every thing its best not to debate it to long just in case they sell out or the price goes up.
    You have certainally picked a great model there.
    I am making the toys and joys one but my progess is to the least painfully slow and its not as detailed as yours. I have the fire engine from Gatto its very detailed, I have not been game to have a go at it. Also the plan detail is very small and I have trouble seeing it perhaps I could get it blown up to a larger size you may want a copy of the fire engine plan at some point in the furture at which time I could do a copy and swap with you.
    Buy as many tools as you can before the world runs out of money
