chuckwagon diorama

As a chuckwagon cook here in arizona I was amazed at this model. As I was building it, I did notice a small problem. The lid to the chuckbox is in the wrong spot. The lid should be attached to the lower portion of the chuckbox. The current position of the lid/table is at the bottom of the boot. The boot holds the heavy equipment such as dutch ovens, kettles frying pans etc. If a cook was to use the lid in the position it is in now it would be too low and would require constant bending over . The correct position is approx. waist high. check out pictures of actual chuckwagons in operation and you will see the difference. I have adjusted mine accordingly and if I knew how to post pictures I would show the difference.
this is a really great looking wagon and I want to compliment Olie on a really great job
thanks Frank
