I'm using Pawel's "REPLY" button to respond to this build. You did a very nice job on this Fueler Trailer. It's always nice to see the different aspects of military stuff that isn't always seen, but is quite an essential part of military life and operations. Again, nice job.

Thanks, Pawel.

I sometimes have to do that to get the edit button after I post, I think it's a bug on this site.  I'm starting on making a WW II tank trailer from the Atlantis reissue right now, using a resin Diamond T for the tractor.

Hello John!

Very nice - I love stuff like this, and I don't get to see it in scale often enough!

One side note - the "Reply" button on this thread seemed to disappear right after your sig fully loaded - I had to reload the page and move like a snake to reply to your post...

Anyhow - thanks for sharing and have a nice day

Paweł

All comments and critique welcomed. Thanks for your honest opinions!

More stuff to put around my airplanes, this is an all resin and PE kit.  I replaced the axle, the tow hook, and the vertical shaft for the landing gear with music wire.  I really didn't care for the way the wheels were cast, with pour stubs that came way past the wheel rim, and if you took too much off it also removes the center hub.  Looks fine once its done, though.  No decals were supplied, I drew the markings up and printed them on an Alps printer.
