Nick's trains

Post by cincinnati »

Here is a pic (using my new digital camera) of the trains Nick designed. With a few mods. I am going to give them to the Boy that asked me to build him a train and his brother. They are 6 years and 18 months. The oldest one will be so excited. he loves trains.

Great job!

But another photo that I don't dare show around here for fear of it being put on a high priority list.

Congratulations.

You've apparently anticipated our next Sawdust Session. Drew and I have been designing a "Pinnochio Jig" for easy construction of siblings.

With all good wishes,

On a related subject, Nick: would SS consider reprinting (or selling in e-form) the plans for the miniature wooden Mark V?
