    My Semi collection ( Mainly Scratch built)

    I use these for putting on LCV (Long Combination Vehicle) courses. They are my teacher aids . Both Converters and the frame and suspension of the lead are Scratch built. I can post build threads for all of these if you guys want to see them.

    Hey guys. Thanks for the comments. Will post more build pics tonight. I use all these for doing classroom training. In Canada, to pull 2 53 foot trailers you have to be endorsed. Having the truck there helps show the guys what to do before they get into the real truck.

    All is good. I'm sorry after I saw what I wrote it came across seriously harsh. Was just trying to nip it in the butt. Have had others on other forums that kept doing it. I'm sorry I got my back up. Thank you for the compliments I do appreciate that.

    Ill look into it more.. so we can get this issue cleared up for all the hobbyists that can be honoured for their Girl power! Its tough on a forum.. and since most of the hobbyists so far are fellows... I will do my best to get this cleared up for you

    I put my mobile phone into "airplane mode" and threw it. Worst. Transformer. ...Ever.

    Top notch Medic, that's cool to do that.

    Madison, Your skills are way beyond most men, we really should have seen your level of patience and
    known your a woman. Great job, keep it up, looking forward to seeing more.

    if i may, i understand that you can get annoyied by it but i expect may of the people here (myself included) aren't used to having a female around, even fewer with your level of skill.

    i'm not on many forum where the magority of the member are from another country but in the uk forums i'm on having a female is very rare, as a result many refer to them as "dude" or "man" etc simply from force of habit.


    i think in many cases the term "man" or "dude" and even "guys" has been used more as acknowedgment of a very good or very bad thing, in this case this is from the workmanship in your modeling, so while you may not like it perhaps consider that not everone is assuming you a man?

    Madison, wow. Im a newb at the forums but have spent a life time workn those big rigs, driven workn them hard and workn hard on them, the men in this world still forget that its the ladies that actually out class out detail and no joke out do most men in there own field of work. Your skills are 2nd to non and im showing these pics to a good good mate. A girl trucky that has built a scale rig of her own and owns the 1 to 1 rig she scaled off of. And she built the 47 international prime mover from scratch.
    My advice
    Keep on truckn them builds gal

    Very nice work! Hope to see more of the build. Love the fact you're using brass instead of aluminum or steel.
