Thread: cab over truck

Kelrob,

Looks fantastic. All of the models you have built from Toys and Joys look like the ones on their website. Would you be able to take a shot from the back of the truck. I am curious do the plans have any detail in the suspension? One more question did you scroll saw the slots in the wheels or did you drill from the back at an angle?

Just brilliant Bob,
It's come up a treat, great detail.
Love the wheels.
Well done.
Cheers, crowie

Nice work, has certainly come up a treat. Well done.

Another very nice model Kelrob I love to see your work.
Cheers Elderly.

hi everyone thanks for the kind comments and sorry bret for the late reply ,the truck has no suspention on it., the wheels are drilled from behind using a 3/8 drill i used the template from the gas and oil truck plans that i all ready made hope this helps bob

Wow Thanks Bob,

What a great set of models you have to look at everyday. I suspected the truck didn't have a full suspension. I myself having OCD would have to modify that part. But the wheels are freakin' awesome. And the plan is ingenious. Sometimes things are so simple but look complicated. Thanks for sharing.

Bret

Thanks Bob for the photos of you rig.
The excavator, lowloader look great behind your truck.
Very nice use of timber for the contrast.
Cheers, crowie
