Have you ever hit a "bad patch" in your model builds - nothing goes wright -nothing fits - its to high or its to low or just plain don't look wright and of course there is just living with the project for to long - well that's the way I felt about my attempt at building a 1914 Leyland mobile workshop so I thought it was time to call it a day and ship it off to pastures new in this case Gordon's empire in the North with hope it might get finished on another day.
A new start in 1/35th a 1914-1918 Albion truck - using plans from the WW1 Landships forum (an excellent site for information on WW1 details) measurements from the plans were transferred to a sheet of graph paper and Evergreen styrene channels laid out and squared up to form the main chassis the fuel tank on this version will live under the seat ,its normally fitted to the front bulk head but a larger tank was required (I used acrylic rod for the larger tank) some versions of this trucks were fitted with chain guards depending on the conditions they operated in -the chains and all linkages and the steering was lubricated through a lubrication system operated by the clutch pedal the small tank on the side being the"lube tank"
The first photo shows the layout of the chassis on the graph paper - the rear wheels are modified Airfix ones to give the look of solid rubber tyres

Barney,
it is all caused by the " revenge of the lego blocks " ;D
you haven't included one yet :o :o
Jacq
Sorry Jacq but think you will find those "red" things are modified Lego blocks.
And Barney/Stuart what ever your name is, I am glad you finally came out of the closet and have admitted you Airfix fixation ;)

Gordon ,
Those wheels didn't come from your rather extensive collection of old Airfix kits you have stashed away in your workshop , by any chance ?
Nick
Nick , they may have done ;D
But, you probably missed it when you were asleep ..... I'm an entertaining host ...... but Stuart emptied my workshop of its entire stock of Airfix kits!
Large stocks of Airfix kits (less wheels and front axles ) now available - Lego blocks at an all time low must give my grandson a vist and raid his bedroom whilst no one is looking
Barney
Brake rods and steering now sorted next step detailing with nuts /bolts and rivets

Nice one Stuart, as usual up to your very clean and high standards.
Think I will wait till you are nearly finished then demand my Airfix bits back ;D
Is this one getting the work shop on the back ? if so time is tight if you are going to finish for Folkestone ................ nose to the grindstone and all that
p.s. see you have the new photo hosting site of pat now
Is this the "imperfect" and "everything went wrong" chassis you were griping about earlier? Methinks you criticize your work too harshly. -- Russ
Gordon yes workshop on the back - just started collecting the bits together for the lathe/bench driller and grinder -Lego blocks for bench work and storage units - loads of Aber PE spaners it's all systems go!! At last out of the bad patch
Russ this is chassis number 4 -the first to low the second to high tried modifying with soldering iron (I should have known better) 3rd just did not look wright !! So here we are on number 4
Barney
Some more progress nuts/bolts and rivets now completed -more rivets for the chassis but these will be on the workshop floor support beams

Most satisfactory. -- Russ
Simply beautiful scratch-work.
The worms will definitely get an eyeful! (Get it? Worm's eye view of the underside?)
Oh well ... looking damn good ... is that better?! ;D -- Dallas
Onto the bodywork of the workshop -first photo shows the underside of the floor (a view for the worms) and the shape of the storage benches.
I was going to build the complete body first and then slot the interior part in last but to many problems kept popping up and more support to the sides was required so I had to think "ship into a bottle" and start to build it inside out !!

Was going to admire the 4 ring cooker , but then I realised it was one of your "famous" Lego blocks ;D
Nice work ........... thought of having one, or maybe more, of the drawers slightly open with few tools ?
Only asking as I know you are not under any time pressure to finish this ;)
Gordon the answer is NO!! Army regulation 700077 states no draws should be left open

Barney
Looking good, thought you been a bit quiet ....... glad you have been using your time wisely ;D
What colour is the inside of workshop?
Looking great!
Love the finishes already applied, cant wait to see it all done.
Will there be a way to see inside when complete or will it be all closed up?
The cushions look great too - and I just got some milliput! ;D
-Mj
Excellent! Glad to see the progress. -- Dallas
Marty - yes you will see the interior-the vehicle was originally built for desert use it will have a "sunshine roof " 2 sliding roof panels and the sides have roller type blinds fitted -the rollers are just visible and tie down straps have been fitted -the grill is the air vent for the generator and compressor which are driven off the rear of the gearbox a bench top has yet to be fitted to cover them
Gordon - my new paint set has only shades of green !

Coming along nicely!
I would assume drawers in a mobile item would have some kind of lift then pull action to keep from sliding open in transit.
Thus saving time modelling open ones. ;)
Satisfactory. -- Russ
Very nice! I especially like coloration of the top of the workbench.
A few shots of the roof and some bits for the bench (Gordon before you start - I know there is no bulbs in the lamps)

Barney
WOW!
Great stuff Barney!
Keep at it! Looking forward to more.

Barney ,
When you have got bored with it after winning gold at Euro can I have first refusal to buy it off you ? My collection of your " cast-offs" needs another member . Hopefully Gordon won't think it good enough to be allowed into his house !

I always had fun with my Legos, but they never came out looking like that! Glad to see more progress. -- Dallas

Actually I was thinking along those lines as it is rather good, but now that I realise the "bulbs" are missing its rather taken the shine off it.
Sorry Barney, only kidding ;D .......... as they say in these parts Satisfactory!
Out of interest why no bulbs? , Chuck has given detailed instructions on how to produce these so rather surprised that you could not be bothered ::)
OK , going back to my knitting now !
p.s what is it with everybody giving me a hard time on this forum?
Gordon - look at the second photo at the bottom " bulbs to go in last" I will be using the Grandt Line ones that come with the lamp shades these being 1/4 scale but work out a nice size for 1/35th the early bulbs are a nice frosty white glass colour but the later ones are just grey plastic . What did Sherlock Holmes say to Dr Whatson something about observation !
Barney
I find nothing to criticize. How boring of me. -- Russ
Incredible Barney.......good luck at Euromilitaire! A very possible winner!
Anders
Inside but not out !

Would that be a semi-oxymoron? :)
Very nice and well-packed with details!
Looks great Barney, lots lovely little details ....... Those wire reels are pretty impressive.
I understand it's against Standing Orders, but would still loved to have seen the odd drawer/ cupboard door at least slightly open ;)
Expect a decent result down on the coast
The finished job

Nicely done! Great choice of subject.
Now, now Barney don't be shy ................. tell them what you got for it.
By the way it turned out really well , every pic tells a story
Beautiful job on "The Truck!" Also dig the irregular patch of groundwork on the base ... nice setting. -- Dallas
Barney,nice job on the truck and the base. I really like this WW1 stuff.

Well , nothing less than gold , I assume . Possibly not " Best in Show" , but either way , we need to know .
( This is EuroMilitaire we are talking about , of course. )
Well, if he keeps up with his past pattern of entries in the "all scratch-built" category, it was most likely a Gold....and well deserved.
...regardless, this has been a wonderful project/build to follow. Thank you for sharing it here. Looking forward to what magic you will do next.

Congrats!
Congratulations Barney! Well deserved on a fantastic scratch build. Looking forward now to new pictures of Oscar´s Work Shop.

Another Gold to sling on the pile in the cupboard . Does the Bank Of England come to you when they are a bit short of change ?
Congratulations . I shall come and inspect it on the 20th .
Congrats! What, no medal tax over there?
Congratulations on such an outstanding job. A very well deserved reward!
