    This is a project for John Bartalotto, to convert Father Nature old time reefers into old time 36' boxcars. I ground off the ice hatches, and used Transfer tape glue to stick a new wood roof on:

    Then I made new sliding doors and stuck on top of the hinged reefer doors:

    A quick and easy mod, less paint and decals.

    I think you started him on this quest Jürg! After he seen that motorcycle, Kim just knew he was going to have some.

    And if you want something that is otherwise unavailable, you make it yourself!

    Great job Kim! [​IMG] :D [​IMG]

    Kim,

    Would you please contact me off line about your old time large wheel bicycles? They fit my era perfectly.

    I'm working on my barn project still. Not quite happy with the first 2 iterations, I think I got it on the third. I'll post photos when I get it built.

    Not so much a physical workbench as a virtual workbench but that's how Mark 4 Design models are generated.

    Link below is to a screenshot of our next Z scale freight car, a Gunderson 50' exterior post high-cube boxcar. All going well it should be available within the next 10 days. Construction will be the same as the earlier waffleside car - acrylic with etched stainless steel stirrups and brake wheel. MT trucks and (body-mount) couplers will be included. Price will be around $30.

    http://home.ps.gen.nz/~m4d/assets/images/Gunderson_50_C.jpg

    We are working on getting a new website up with a lot more information on the models, more pictures etc.

    The 50' airslide is close to completion - we are finalizing the etched walkways etc but we will probably release another style of boxcar before the airslide is released.
