Hi PD's ......I have a set of feathering wheel components from Waverley models...for PS Decoy .....but am a little :rant & :dunno so :squareone with the construction
There must be hundreds of modlers who have completed a Waverley wheel set & have understood the construction method better than I have been able to...... :shoot
My first assumption was that during the flight :pig_flying from UK to OZ the higher temperature over the equator may have changed some component dimensions :crash :oops
So .......anyone with a :camera ...could you please send a .jpg of a completed wheel as a picture says a million words :?:

Hi PD's....here is a question for Andrew/Eddy or Hans.......in our Photo gallery we have the folder by ...ajg41..who is Andrew.....however posted by Eddy :shock: of the Dortmound 2007
One :camera snap which I have attached is of that beautiful Modellblau ????? composite brass/bronze & wooden paddle wheel set
I have uploaded a Google translation for this WEB site but cannot locate the same composite brass/bronze & wooden paddle wheel set listed
Hans...I would ask the begging question however cannot locate an actual e-mail address for the Company apart from the AUTO send facility
If you get time, could you please ask for a direct e-mail address :towel

Derek,
For those sort of prices you could buy a small miller and a rotary table and make as many sets as you wanted.
Methinks a little over the top.
