Phil Sharples Tipper Wagon

As the Small Welsh Coal Wagons turned out so well i thought i'd have a go at another one of Phil Sharples wagon kits.
This time it's his Tipper Wagon. As the kit comes the wagon dosen't actually tip but i'm going to see if it's possible
to modify it so that it does. Watch this space!

Short video of all 3 wagon types that i have here.

Apart from couplings and paint it's finished. I've made a crude attempt to get the it to tip. Drilling out the end pieces
then separating them from the supports. Adding brass end overlays and a copper pipe pivot through the centre.

Paint and some chemical blackening to the copper bits and it's pretty much done.
