Alex Barker's Meccano Models & Instructions.
Here are the models I have built from January 2017 to date. Some of them are copies of models designed by other Meccano model builders and factory produced Meccano booklets, whilst some of them have been designed by me.

Between December 2016 and January 2017 I built my version of Tony Parmee's fantastic Jet Airliner.

Also in March 2017 I built these 4 trucks from a 1990s Set 3, in different colours.
Also in March 2017 I built my version of this Coal Delivery Wagon, designed by Spanner in the Meccano Magazines.

In April 2017 I built this model - another one of Spanner's models.
In this view of the truck you can see the rudder.
Here you can see the PDU motor which powers the model. The truck has had front wheel steering.
Also in April 2017 I did another one of Spanner's smaller models - this 3-wheeler.

In May 2017 I built my latest self-designed model, which was loosely based on a few other Meccano steamboat models.
