Not sure what plasticard are is.

Here in Germany when I google I only get credit card manufacturers.

Rod

Sorry Rod, a lot of scale modellers use this material. The plasticard is sheets of plastic A4 size or larger and comes in various thicknesses which is great for building items for models.

I use plasticard and it should be fairly easy to build something very similar to the self centreing hitch you show in your last picture. The corgi toys Silver Ghost in the picture below has a lot of white plasticard for the main body, wings, grille centre and parts of the steering components.


Ghosthunter.

Can I have that when it's finished?

So you can molest it even further...

Ghosty.

Au contraire!
I shall cherish it as an original Ghosthunter in the same vein as I wouldn't paint sunglasses on Mona Lisa.

An original Ghosthunter, I like the sound of that and I will have to sign it for the benefit of the Antiques Roadshow when the model is discovered in 20 years time

Ghosty.
