well Xmas is getting dim  ..  ;-) 
 Back to the real work..some progress with the wild west stage coach.. or Concord coach to be precise  ..  not yet finished...

  so a mock-up of the finished item just to give me some encouragement  ;-)

Hi all....
  a little progress with the Stage Coach..

 so while waiting for the carriage to dry , I have started the wheels..

and finished one front wheel and one rear wheel.

showing here the front section of hub on the larger rear wheel, and the rear section of hub on the smaller front wheel..

.

ok ... so another matchstick model is comeing...
                                       albeit slowly.... very slowly.  hahaha .. ;-)

here is the plan... yep that's it.. haha  ..

 ok your eyes are not going.. it's a terrible picture.. it's actually upside down..

 this is both side pannels with the joint spars in place drying ... hopefully I can start filling in the floor and ends tomorrow..
just a quick one to show a little progress... I have also done the long chassis parts and the axles and wheel hubs.. ..

ok.. been a tad buisy tryout matchstick model kits.. I'm not impressed.. they supply a card former to build then you just stick matches on... cheap rubbish at big prices.. I did the 1900 era  fire engine with escape ladder on large cart type wheels..

Also a another kit.. just a bag of matches and a plan... this looks more like it..  an early 'V twin' cylinder engined chopper... as apposed to a low rider of today..this was far more satisfactory to build,.. just a plan of the parts for scale ..
