    Default Mack B61 ST

    I have another project I want to start along with the Scania. It is a Mack B Series. I have drawn up some scale plans from pics and little bit of hard data I got from a brochure. This truck has alot of curves to make so I am a little nervous about it. I cant decide whether to build it in 1/20 scale like the Superliner or 1/10 like the Scania. I have attached my rough sketches and some pics that where inspirational. Both of the trucks for inspiration are from Australia.

    Later,
    Bret

    Default You sure you haven't got some Aussie blood in your Texas vains

    G'Day Bret,
    Looks like another masterpiece is underway.
    You sure you haven't got some Aussie blood in your Texas vains.
    Love the photos of the actual truck from Australia.
    Looking forward to your WIP photos.
    Cheers, Crowie

    Hi Bret, This looks like its going to be good. look forward to seeing this take shape.
    I prefer 1/10 scale but i am sure whichever you pick it will be terrific. keep us updated and thanks for sharing with us.
    Reality is no background music.
    Cheers John

    I grew up in a village where timber was a mainstay of the local economy. My father and uncles were originaly in the timber game. The school I attended had a sawmill across the road from it at the back of the playing fields, and timber trucks used to run up the hill past two classrooms on a daily basis.

    All of us loved Mack trucks! so I am looking forward to this!!
