That's one beaut looking truck......
G'Day & Welcome to the Great Southern Land and to a top forum "special one".
There are quite a few members from Europe, not sure about France specifically but all of the rest of the world.....
You'll find a heap of helpful & knowledgeable blokes & ladies on the forum and for most very willing to assist.
Especially a top mob of blokes on the toymaking & scale modeling section of the forum.
Make sure you keep showing off your handiwork as everyone loves a photo, especially WIP [Work In Progress] photos with build notes.
Enjoy the forum.
Enjoy your woodwork and toymaking.....
Cheers from On Top DownUnder, crowie
PS - That's one beaut looking truck......love the detail....the tri-axle is great...

Were did you get the plans, please??

You look like a very accomplished woodworker!!
Thank you for being a toymaker!!!

THANK YOU !!
Hi everybody , thank you for your comments ! To ask to your questions ; scale 1/10 th , but , I 'm not able to say how much time . I' ve started this project of truck MAN , three years ago . I' ve built a first prototype that was not also good looking . Then , I decided to start it again , and in the state of mind that if i can build one truck , I also can build it in four examples . Next time , I' ll join some new pictures .

This is an amazing build. Would love to see a work in progress from you when you build the next one. The wood looks like pine? What great detail. The drivetrain all looks the real part. What do you have planned for a finish? Again Top Job!
