Art, Marty and David - thanks for the kind words.

Art - when you come to DSC10 next year, you'll be able to take a gander at this on my shelf while the judging is going on.

Sounds like a plan!

Thank you for the thoughtful words Johann. I really appreciate you posting that.

Well, yesterday the carney wagon took first place in the Light Commercial category at Desert Scale Classic right up the road from me as well as taking Best Interior. I was speechless and quite humbled.

It was VERY well deserved. It was a pleasure to see this in person.

Today was Modelcom and I entered this in the Commercial Trucks category and took home first place. This contest is judged by fellow modelers only so when you entered a model, you got a ballot. With all of the quality builds in this category, I was surprised to say the least.

Thanks brother. It was a great show yesterday. Met some new builders and shared some stories.

That is so cool, the prizes are very well deserved.

I've got the Matchbox/AMT kit in my 'to do' pile, I'm planing a depression-era 'dust bowl' truck.

[gasser59]

Thanks for your interest Barry. I have another in the box one too. Let us know when you start yours because I'd like to tune in.

[Balsa Manufaktur]

Lovely. Did you empty a dollhouse?  I am joking, great details !!

 

[gasser59]

Thanks so much Andreas. No, I haven't been shopping in the dollhouse section.  LOL

[gasser59]

I completely forgot to post a pic of the added interior window frame dividers. It really bugged me from the interior, the frames were missing and it looked like one big sheet of glass.

I'm thinking of adding a small flat battery similar to a watch battery and a small LED light in the rafters with a small switch. Got to find the right combination of battery, voltage, bulb and switch. I think it will look really cool for light to be showing through the windows.

Thanks for your interest.

The new Contest Issue of MCMagazine was in my mailbox yesterday and to my surprise, the Carney Wagon made the issue.

Congratulations on making the magazine brother!

I never get tired of looking at this one.

[gasser59]

Much appreciated G. Thanks.

[Nytrozilla]

Congratz Brad. That's well deserved recognition. I noticed Chris' FED right next to it on the page.

Heck, even my 55 C300 AWB Mazmanian Gasser made it. That was a surprise 

 

[gasser59]

I saw that too Joe. Congrats to you on making the contest issue. I think they got the photos from an earlier DSC mixed up with these.

Yeah, those magazine blurbs are as good as, or better than a win as far as I'm concerned. That carny wagon is definitely worthy.

[gasser59]

Thanks Mike. That's a true statement about getting in the magazine.

[Tyler62990]

Now that's cool. Definitely something you don't see everyday
