I turned the small tapered pieces for the pipes to slide onto. There are 2 turnbuckles that pull the end pieces together. Hope to have some awesome tomatoes! All the wood is recycled.

1/20 scale Kenworth W900 Wooden Model.First two pics show the W900 models,- one is our Aussie version,- the other is the USA/Canadian version,- can you pick which is which ?
Next two pics show a couple of pages of the woodworking Plan I have drawn up, and is now available to any woodworker who wishes to build a nice wooden model of a Kenworth W900.
Photo No. 5 shows the Boss of Kneebone Transport, ( Daryl Kneebone ), holding the two W900 models while standing alongside Kneebone Transport's classic 1985 Kenworth W900 & the last photo shows the same truck in their Minlaton yard,- and which I was allowed to photograph from all angles to enable me to use the photos to draw up the woodworking plan.
My 1/20 scale of the, “Bandit's Truck, ” wooden model & subsequent woodworking plan is also based on this very same W900.
