            Hi Ray,I do not know where you live,but AMBO have members dotted about the country,and if you lived close one would give you a hand. I am down in Kent, my barge is on my Gallery, It’s all scratchbuilt.

                Hi David,

                If you fill in your Profile we might know where in the world you are  and suggest help,that is James Piper in my Gallery that I scratched built from Plans supplied via AMBO, check out the link on Daryl Dobbs post.

                Winches were made up from gear wheels and sheet styrene.

                Regards,

                Len

                ps Just noticed that Australia was mentioned.
