Hello, Jonathan-

This version looks very close to Ross’ riff on James Mathis’ design. History HERE.


JOHN

That is correct. James made some new instructions after seeing Ross’s version and I built it. You can see James’ instructions and pictures of the trolleys I built here

Thanks all.

I don't have one, but you can see that same photo with a lot more detail here:

Ah, that's great!  Thanks!

I may attempt one similar to that soon.

I think it's a James Mathis design, built by Bruce Chamberlain.  But I
might have that mixed up with another trolley.  If it is a Mathis then
you can probably get the plans from him.
