Thinking of making a Winnebago.

Don't know what you're gathering for references...but there's a free-to-download 1/48 paper model that might provide some inspiration.

Check here.

Thanks!

1/48th to 1/24th is 200% enlargement (192% for 1/25th btw)

Thanks!it will be big.I think Tonka made a large metal one with full interior.

I want to build a scaled up version of this Tomica die cast.

Hi;

    There have been some versions of that in larger sizes. I believe Nylint made one in the Chieftan model. If you need plastic siding then turn to Evergreen Plastics for your sheet stock. One large sheet for each side should do it!

Thanks!Have to break out the old T Square and triangles to prepare assembly templates!

Getting the frame together.

Watching this one!

Watching this one!

Me as well.

One of my long-percolating 'back burner' projects is to do a 1/25 version of the old Matchbox-cars Trailer Caravan. [Yep...the ghastly pink one!]

I have the perfect-size box trailer to use as a chassis; all that's put me off is doing interior goodies like sinks and such. I'll be keen to see how you source the interior detail.

Yep!might have to raid my daughter's old Barbie house!

No!Do not violate Barbie's house!

 Go to Hobby Lobby and you'll find what you need!

Great idea!She might want to save it for her daughter!

LOL.....dedpending on how old it is, might be worth more the the Winny.

Further suspension work.

Oh Hell yeah!!! Will be watching this one!! 

Cool

Hi;

 I believe you can remove the Cab Bottom rest brace. It won't be needed.

Looking forward to this.

Ok I think I want to get the differential "pumpkins"installed to establish wheelbase abd then draw the outline for the parts.

The rear suspension as you have it now is set up for the twin screw axles.....are you going to keep those or modify back to a single axle at each end.

There were a couple of motorhomes that had twin axles or a drive axle and a tag.  Our GMC has twin rears on a bogie/air bag suspension and front wheel drive.

Might leave it as it is and make a custom.

Ok here is the side view...goung for a short RV 

I will use the drawing to make a master template.
