Thanks to everyone for their kind words about this model. It was fun making it. I must say, it's rewarding when others like something as much as I do (and I do like this one).

I think it's a brilliant creation and it would fit well in the range. I'd love to see more of them although it must be time consuming. If you don't mind me asking, what do you use to stick the metals together?

Hi Tinman,
Also comes this Restored model from your witch's Kitchen ?
I bought it some time ago in ebay.
It is a very good job.
Perfect, also on both sides of the crimped axles.

Greetings Mike from Austria ...... the true always against restorations.
(Even as a stubborn collectors can change)

I use an industrial grade, fast setting, two part epoxy. However, any decent two part epoxy should work well.

Figured as much. I'm selling my gray Esso Tanker this week. Got to pay for Xmas some how!

Thanks for that, I'm thinking of having a little play with a few ideas I've got.
