Thanks for the comment Husker.

More on the Conestoga. Making of the side box and barrel. These items will be placed on later after the paint job. This my technique for the making of the barrel. It is more sturdy and I won't crush the sides with my handful of thumbs.

Again as in previous models, I do not worry about smudges on the work. This will be taken care of later in the painting and weathering.
