Build an Unloading Ramp article ??

Bob,

I saw that truck/trailer/&gator too but also was not sure of the scale.

I will just keep looking around.

 I have a layout figure I call scale Gale I take with me when we are shopping so I can see how toys scale up. She has helped me a lot. 

Thanks

This was out several years ago, so it wouldn't be in stock at Wal Mart. Kent did check Diecast Direct this afternoon and found a truck/trailer/and Gator available, but he said the scale was uncertain. I think he said the whole set was 8 inches long (about 36 feet in O).

Yea whenever I walk into a Starbucks, I always walk out with a handful of stir sticks.

Chad. I have also found that coffee stir sticks work well for projects. They are not as wide as popcicle sticks and are closer to a scale 2'X12" board. Just a thought.

I don't know where Stan got his, but I got mine at Wal Mart four or five years ago, and I think Kent got one on the web (probably Diecast Direct. If you look at a few of Stans previous articles, I think you'll find it in several other photos.

OH No Bob, Please don't tell me I have to go to Wal Mart.

I checked Diecast Direct yesterday but don't see anything in scale. I will keep looking.

Thanks guys.

Stan and CTT,

I agree with Kev, this was a fantastic article.

Chad,

Have you posted photos of your water tower?  I would like to see and learn how you did it.

Stan Trzoniec,

I loved the article Build an Unloading Ramp and I think I am going to do something like that but I have another question. In the first page picture where did you get the John Deere Gator with the guy sitting in it from?

I would like to get one.

Tks,

Kev.
