Title: Post-Roman Ox Wagon Scratch-Build
Post by: Mitch K on 23 September 2013, 11:28:33 AM

Though I'm sure no one will believe me, I was thinking about building a wagon before Paul posted his. Here's my take on constructing an early mediaeval ox wagon. This is the first part of a set of builds I'll do to get the three wagons I need for Dux Brit wagon train scenarios.

There's a full build how-to on my blog here:

(warning, it's picture heavy).

Here's a shot part-way through construction:
