Another festive kit from Coach & Wagon Works. The parts are all laser-cut and slot into each other perfectly, with plenty of positive location guides.
Using Deluxe Materials Laser-Cut glue, assembly only takes a few minutes. Probably the slowest job being putting the wheels on the axles and making sure they are vertical.
I made one improvement - adding a very thin piece of wood along the main side rails. This covers up the lugs holding the platform in place, and makes the unpainted trolley look better. Whether it's worth it once the model is painted is up to you. The version on the website looks quite nice.
Slightly crude models like this are perfect for me and my preference for caracature figures. Something highly detailed would jut look wrong with them, but this works well.
Cheap, and simple to assemble - a winner for me!
