MODEL 12

June 2003

TUG BOAT

This model was built from a model plan designed by Jim Picton.

I downloaded the plans from http://mypage.uniserve.com/~jpicton/jp-tug-1.htm

The modelplan was well written and easy to follow.

 

I added a base to the model that makes it lift slowly up and down as if in a gentle swell.

I used the small bushwheels from the elektrikit set, powering only the front set to give a realistic effect.

 

Jim Picton's original model in Red and Green

Mine built in Zinc, Yellow and Blue.
