those are great looking trucks. were those from a kit? I make them. I have a couple styles I put on trucks and have a plans for a third modeled off of a Knaphied stake type bed. Basically I have it worked out in my head, just need to build it. I have trucks for sale on ebay if you would like to see other models. shop.ebay.com/echasel/m.html?_trksid=p4340.l2562My next purchase from sales is to get a better camera for close ups. |

Those look really good. I may have to steal your idea of using the ladder. I need to build some more sets of racks but my last one took so long I have been putting it off.

Those look really good. I may have to steal your idea of using the ladder. I need to build some more sets of racks but my last one took so long I have been putting it off. I intend to buy more ladder but will go with HO scale vs N pictured. www.hobbylinc.com/htm/pls/pls90672.htm I think the HO will "look" better even though scaling up to real life measurements the racks would only be 16" versus 24" I see on real trucks. O scale could be an option as the decimal equivalent of O scale ladder is .4" or 26" in real life and a 24" rack would be .375. I'm probably splitting hairs but sometimes I get locked into certain dimensions until I say "heck with it, I like the way it looks". |
