rayrideguy @periocus Thanks. turns out i will be getting a better ramp for the entrance built, i tried to salvage the faller queue and use them as a ramp but that is a failure, was very flimsy and wasn't attached well. I just need to paint some of the legs and add fencing beside gluing the structure back together (I took the legs out of the base to paint them so they're sitting in the base slots but not glued. Here's how she looks next to Rainier's wheel in my layout

rayrideguy @periocus So glad I bought these gondolas. I just finished painting and installing them onto a rebuilt Faller wheel, They make it look perfect for a Chance Giant Gondola Wheel (90' in height). the project is not quite finished, minor details remain but the seats are done.

rayrideguy @lrschmiedecke the towers really help to give depth to the midway

rayrideguy @lrschmiedecke These came out great

rayrideguy @periocus It fits in very nicely with the Don Cummons rides that I own in the collection

rayrideguy @periocus Thanks for another gorgeous model that is perfectly scaled and detailed This is a dead on match to the Eli Bridge Hy5 wheels that are popular in the USA on smaller carnivals

rayrideguy @periocus This model really looks good and stands out nicely against all my other fancy classic american rides on my carnival layout/display

rayrideguy @periocus I've got my Rok N Rol just about finished, still needs a few small touch ups and things added, but it's done for the most part Excellent model, I can't say enough good things about it

rayrideguy @periocus I just received this model from Shapeways this afternoon, Holy Crap this thing is gorgeous It's a perfect re-creation of the Chance Rok N Rol, right down to deck and trailer details, it's too bad the price is quite high, otherwise i'd bet a lot of the US guys would jump on this, well i guess i'm either first or 2nd over here to get it Money well spent! I am going to add some light fixtures and paint it up and then she will be good to go on my midway, Oh the size is perfect as well, fits almost perfectly with other similar sized rides like swings, scrambler etc that are common over here

rayrideguy I have this ride on order, i can't wait to see how it turns out, i'll share it on the various US model sites once i receive mine :)

rayrideguy another one that's be cool in HO

rayrideguy Here's how the tower turned out, Nice job Rich
