Monmouthshire Waggon
Posted: 17 May 2018, 20:47
Thought I would post this here. I started a Monmouthshire Waggon as a new project something totally different for me compared to the type of models and toys I make.
It may take a few posts to bring this up to date but here goes.
First job was to cut out the parts for the wheels and make a small story stick for the naves
Well I decided while I had the machines set up might as well cut all the other parts well at least thickness material ready and put masking tape on the ends with the size. You can see a cutting list in one of the photos
Out came the chop saw to cut all of the felloes 6 each for the rear wheels and 5 each for the front wheels. I laid these out in the following photo with a 6" ruler for scale
Now I have a pile of parts next job is to turn the naves even though the front and rear wheels are different sizes the naves are all the same size which made it easier for turning
Main parts for the wheels all taped up so as not to get mixed up
