Thanks Anders!

I was thinking of making up an ad for Willamette when i get it finished.
Would look cool hanging in the train room!

Nice detail!

Well it is finally done!
I am most pleased with the final results and images.
Seemed like it took longer than 3 1/2 months!
Eventually I will construct and rig it to a spar tree with a loading scene.
Dont hold your breath on that getting done soon though!

Excellent job!!!

That came out nice, Marty. Maybe some bark and debris scattered on the sled when you install it?

Good inspiration if I ever get back to mine.

Well done! I like the slightly used look.
