The purpose of this section is to provide as much information as possible on the techniques involved when making a model. Because there are no kits of parts it is nesscessary for the horse-drawn vehicle modeller to create his own method of manufacturing the parts and the sequence and method of assembling them.

Within this section, therefore, you will find a wide variety of tried and tested techniques. Some will necessitate the use of lathes and special tools. Some, on the other hand will make use of the minimum of tools. All, however, will allow the modeller to make precision models and to develop additiional skills.

Good luck and happy modelling!
