    Hi Rogal, nice touch the barrels. I recently sans lathe I am afraid, made some barrels with some dowel and stuck matchsticks all the way round and filed a curve at each end for the shape. Then cut some quite narrow width tubing to fit. That was the hardest part!
    Nice job
    Roy

    First class job Rogal, well done ☀️☀️☀️
    Superb detailing, but I must admit ...
    whoever makes them, those yellow barrels always remind of Minions😉
    Looking forward to your next project.
    Cheers, Doug 😎
