Build Number 2

[Rover Man]

Hello guys, Done my second build.

Now you'll have to trust me that i haven't put this in the wrong section

So i got one of these to start.

I wont bore you with the build, Bet you've seen them a thousand times before.

Now i know what you thinking, That's not a Big rig, He's gone and put it in the wrong place lol.

So here's where i started.

Saw this pic a while back and thought, I have got to try and build me one.

So i had the old cab from my Scania just sitting here so thought id throw it on and see

how it looks.

This is going to need a lot of cutting and gluing lol

The body looks a lot to high so more cutting and filing later

So now im getting to a shape im happy with

Now the job i hate the most is painting, Don't know why, Thinks its cause I'm not very good at it.

So just went with a simple design

I'm quite pleased with how it turned out.

Mightly impressed on your second build, surely you must have some prior modelling experience? Come and join TC so you can add more photos to your very own showroom...........

Watched your video as well, bet the wiring was very complicated

Fine looking truck Dave,a very sound second build

I don`t like the rear wheel steering though,even if it does help performance it looks kind of wrong on such a nice scale truck.

Great work squire,whats next?

Thanks Si. Already removed the rear steering

Next project, Maybe an 8x8 trial truck type of thing. Not yet though. Going to start the LSOR back up.

See you soon buddy
