Very nice Robert! Where were you when my boys were young? Their Grandmother gave them really neat wooden trucks, trains and tractors every year for Christmas but none this cool!

Great detail,

Steve, obviously not as good an eye as my wife. She noticed that one of the steps was larger than the others. I told her that the steps were adjustable!

Well ain't that fancy -- you my friend are a stickler for detail. Is that from a plan or is it your own design. Well done.

It's from a plan Bill, but I made a several changes to it. The next part of this project is building a trestle and mounting it on the wall.
