    Default Toys for Big Boys - Version 3 with extras

    This link will take you to a post that shows my Ford Stake Bed Truck including some build along pictures and details. It is also a little different from my previous posts as it is the first time I have sold any of my models.

    As always, your comments, both pro and con are welcome.

    Thanks for looking.

    Is it to much trouble for people to post their pics to this forum? More and more we are getting links to American forums. I thought that links to other forums were not allowed.

    Absolutely agree Elderly, especially when the other forum requires you to join up, just so you can see the images, even though that not the case with this one.
    Cheers

    Elderly.
    I had asked about posting links and was told by one of the webmasters that it was OK.

    In this case it would be a lot of work to repost all the pictures that are in that link because of the build along steps, the post has 26 pictures.

    As far as not being able to see the pictures without joining, I don't believe that is true with the Woodnet site. It may be on some others, but I just went in to Woodnet WITHOUT being logged in and had no trouble seeing pictures in several different posts.

    Give it a try again, and let me know if you still can't see any pictures.

    Hi BigD,
    The way some people do it is to post a couple of completed images for people to check out and a link to your blog for those who want more. That way they know what the result is and those who just want to admire some fine work can do so without having to link through.
    Kind of like a sample.
    By the way top job.
    Regards
    Hugh

    Enough is enough, more than enough is too much.

    OK, I will give that a try. Here is a picture of a 1929 Ford Stake Bed Truck. To see other pictures and the build along pictures, you can click on my link above.

    As noted in my original post, the link contains 26 pictures and all the text for the build along. I felt it would be more efficient for those interested to make one click on the link and see everything than to upload all 26 pictures here and having to click on each one of them.

    Hi Aussie,
    It was when I first joined the forum and asked for advice which you were kind enough to supply through a link to another forum. The link was removed and I think your dressing down may have been removed with it.
    Cheers Elderly.

    Firstly, and this will be the last word off topic. Links to other forums are allowed provided they are relevant to the topic, and are not for the purpose of farming members. It would be very time consuming for any W.I.P. to be duplicated across a number of different forums that people are affiliated with.

    Secondly, great work BigD. And to have someone want to buy it must be the ultimate compliment.
    Too many projects, so little time, even less money!
