    Hi Ederly you have made a great job of the school bus, would you mind tell us what the timbers are that you have used, they look great.

    Great work, as usual Elderly.
    I was going to enquire as to the ease of transposing the plans from L/H to R/H drive, but seeing as it's a North American school bus, there's probably not much point...
    Too many projects, so little time, even less money!
