Does anyone know of a resource that gives an explanation of how to scratch biuld a bomb trolley for WWII aircraft.
I know the Airfix Stirling comes with a trolley but why buy it when you can build it.
Any suggestions will be gratefully received!!!

Hey Humidor-
I've been looking on the internet for some ideas how you could build one yourself, but I'm coming up short.

What scale are you working in? I think I've seen some aftermarket kits of just a bomb trolley but it's been a while.

Anyone else seen these kits?

I am working in 1:72nd....I have found some aftermarket kits like the one at,

http://www.djparkins.clara.net/fltpath/fp72_raf_type_d4000_trolley.htm

But I'm not too keen on spending £7:00 for each trolley. I'm a bit of a novice so any help from the more experinced folks out there would be appreciated

Regards
