Well, yesterday we posted some images of a 'bashed Stomper on the "Buildings" because that is where the "Handcar" thread started... But now that it has gotten into modelling, I thought I should post the progress here on the "Master Modelling" forum.... Now, not that this is MasterClass or anything like that because I don't know how to build from plans.. As I've stated in prior posts, I build from ideas in my head... That's why I can't locate the plans....
So... After putting some CA on the wheels yesterday and screwing up the gears after it soaked into the gear box, I went to KB Toys and picked up a couple more for $2.99 each 'bashed them, then went to the local hobby shop and bought $3 worth of balsa wood and started cutting and gluing.... The following images are the result... Unfinished as they are......
Used the chassis that I messed up to make a trailer with extra plastic pilot wheels from an early R/C Bachmann Ten Wheeler....
Balsa wood has been used to keep the weight down to a minimum. The trailer was been pulled around the layout for about 30 minutes on a NiMH AA battery... This is a fun project...
