Good grief!! That is awsome!

... and so small!

A thought... could you burn the detail of the wagon sides onto a clear piece of acetate or something?? Its looks awfully fragile.

Well done - must have been a challange to assemble?

Whoops....got the polarity wrong and accidentally set it to "engorge"...then hit the matchbox instead.

Sorry about that, Chief...

But seriously...Assembly wasnt too bad, hardest parts were peeling the paper off the wood (its snapped at the back) and lining the planks up before the glue set. The wood itself is suprisingly resilient. The Mk II model now with the cutters will have the floors and roof, which will make it a lot more rigid. Plus the doors might finally make an appearance!
