A different truck build thread

wood 8n.jpg
I love things like that. I had a customer that was a wood worker by hobby. He was fascinated by my 49 8N I had in the showroom. He made me a wood 8N which I still have. The wheels turn too. Sadly, he passed away.
 
See'ns how I have a few more grandkids, I made a couple more of my 'balancing act' action figures. You might notice some of our V8 valve springs and other used up parts involved. A few years back I inherited two 5 gallon buckets of wrenches, mostly manufactured in India and Taiwan, hence the open end wrenches for claws'. I appologize for the poorly produced video, but at least it's really short and you'll get the idea. I think my New Years resolution will be to learn to improve and edit these things.

GB…..every time I see something new that you’re up to, I’m amazed at the ability in the hands that you were blessed with….and the vision to see it thru….nice job ‘Ol Boy!….
Merry Christmas to you and your family, from way over here in Maine!…….
 
Thanks, I just can't seem to sit around doing nothing, so between the larger projects I need to fill in the gaps with this kind of small stuff. It really was FUN!
When I ordered replacement wheels for the ones stolen from the flatbed, I ended up finding two different sets of four wheels. Now I'll have another 1/12 scale set for a possible woodie wagon....
