I have the trailer but not started the conversion yet. I need to make it longer and add outriggers to widen it passed the wheels first. Weather permitting I will do this outside over the winter and build the bodywork in the spring.Any info on the rest of the trailer Bob is there another thread or summat?
Nice rocket btw.
Its only tiny. Just a couple of feet tall in all.I just love the lightweight versatility
Apparently Bob is working on a scale model for loading it now.
Not long on this one. Probably ten hours so far with another ten to do. It’s the bits that would be expensive en mass.You should make em to sell on. You could get a good price I reckon but how many hours do you reckon a finished unit will take?

It makes a wonderfully long and low laboured squeak when pulled slowly. Like an old rusty castle gate.I like this a lot. Espec the damper handle - very satisfying.
Look on the bright side, it won't blow over in the wind!Hell fire. Just looking for valving for the air intake. Its been boosted to three inch and although I may never need the full bore I was looking at a quarter turn ball valve for easy adjustment. At sixty quid I will be coming up with an alternative .
Thats more time on the build but hey ho.
I am thinking of using the curved lump I cut out for the flue box. With a bit of beating it should slide back and forth over the hole. I just need to design a shallow box on the back to house it.
Its getting heavier................
whilst a very impressive build, a couple of sling points might helpTalk about the kiss of death mentioning how long it was going to take Having said that I have embellished a few things since.
Probably up to 40 hours build time now. God only knows what I'm going to add to it next
I ain’t even got a wire brush. Slings is out of my budgetwhilst a very impressive build, a couple of sling points might help
