Hello Alex,

I was planning to build it for myself, but am now thinking of making a master.
Only problem is that Graham does not have time to work on masters.
He is swamped with work on production.
So if I give it to him it might be a long time before it will be available.
I wil see what happens.


@Maurice,

Would It be possble to come and see the trailer next weekend?
Hope to hear from you.

All the best
Leon

Leon , It is better to wait for some better weather , it is now covered up In the back of the field .

Leon, I will see if I can dig up the base measurements I took; maybe that can give you a starting point. I am very curious about what you will make of the model.

Yes, I know he is quite occupied lately....which is a good thing I guess!

I hadn't noticed, Maurice. I am sure you have looked long and far already, but I will keep an eye for the missing parts at this end of the country.
