They didn´t have Scanners etc in those days so they relied on physical methods, like in this case poking about with the tip of a halbard.
Close ups
Guards
Mr wood cutter, wife and son
Dobin and cart
The axle Pins are bit thin, the hole in the wheels an bit large. I´m no fan of glueing unless there´s no other solution so I came up with this.
Short bit of wire insulation on the axle, the holes in the wheels filed a tiny bit larger and Bingo.
This is a fabulous little set, the guards going about the inspection are superb.
