Ralph

Ratio plastic kits (UK OO gauge models) produced a signal box detailling kit many years ago, which included the parts to make a wooden chair with spindle legs. I found the back of the chair (hardest bit to model) still on the sprue, but had to make the legs and seat from scraps of plastic and wire.

I found it easiest to drill holes for the wire chair legs in 'Old Charlie's' legs and bum, so he's in for a shock if he tries to stand up Wink
