Thanks for sharing your Experence.

Fragile is the key word here for sure. I have looked at the carriage for several days and fit some different items (dry) to see what was going on. As you probably discovered when applying the hand brake handles you have to be sure the rod they ride on will fit the backing plate. A detail the plans ignore. I decided that the assembly needs to go together dry fit and positioned in its display position so the wheels are flat on the final surface and then glue things together. This is a good subject for someone with talent to do a build on.
