Class 325 Pumper is finished.

[Chariots of Fire]

With the exception of a couple of minor adjustments, the build of the Class 325 pumper is finished.  The last of the details have been installed but the rear view mirror is not very good.  It needs to be slightly smaller and a lot smoother.  I tried something this time that I have not done before and the results are not up to snuff.  The engine photo is out of focus too.  That needs to be shot over.  In the meantime here is where the build is.

Interesting to see a military fire truck.  Nice model.

Charles, you topped this excellent build off with even more details!  All of the detailing is well dont but I'm very intrigued with your leather strap and buckle hold downs.

Pretty basic materials to make the straps.  A strip of brown paper bag and some craft wire.  I modified a small set of pliers so that I could bend the wire into a consistent small loop.  I either cut both ends off or leave one that can be used to insert into a pre-drilled hole to secure it.
