disabled modeler Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Thanks guys. Mark you can do it I'm working on a couple more now and have some done yet to postAlan buddy....Id like to try sometime. Id also like to try to make a super heavy duty rig of my own that is a 4x4 one suited for off road use brute but they both would need a lot of extra big truck,etc. parts I do not have here...maybe someday...LOL..

alangarber Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 They are not too bad to do. Just takes a lot of time. I already sold the large 3ft dimater Ferris Wheel and am in the process of building another one. Also in the process of doing a Merry-Go-Round. I think most will have to be mounted on wood as the flat deck trailers are too hard to get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disabled modeler Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Those would be cool Kerry buddy. I have no clue which one Id like to try out yet...I have an old lowboy trailer and a flatbed already. I was thinking a floor/frame from the Cattle trailer might make a good base to start one with too maybe..? Ether way Id have to find a ton of parts,etc. to start one from...just like the super heavy duty rig idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alangarber Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 wood bases will wok good for anything tall That's what I used on the 3ft ferris wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteski Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 You've built some nice replicas Alan! I'm involved in a carnival project, but on much smaller scale. Friend of mine and I modeled the Royal American Shows Carnival as it appeared in the '60s in 1:160 scale (N-Scale). He does all the kit and scratch building and I do the animation and lighting. The carnival is part of a set of NTRAK modules (model railroad) which we display at many train shows. My friend also modeled the entire Royal American Shows train. This thread shows how I made the bumper cars (and gives you an idea of the size of those models) and also links to couple of videos of the carnival.
