Mr D's latest match stick model


Hi all, Mr Dunmowin has done it again.

Almost two years ago, while we were farm sitting in Goomeri, we went to Gayndah to the Glen Eden Bullocky Team property, measured and photographed an old timber jinker. Two years later, the end product is now on display, along with two of his previous at the Gatton Transport Museum.

I remember well your postings of that time and the pictures you posted of your work. Everyone was mighty impressed naturally  and you had lots of comments Of admiration. What I think is it seems very logical your work is put in a museum in a place where lots of people can see what you do. They are works of art to be very proud of.

Thanks all,

Chicken Strangler, you say the obvious place is a museum, as we live in our van, we have no choice but to do this, we cant keep them - three now - and another floating around in his head. He builds them for others to enjoy.

Thanks Rocket, Tony & Bev, MrD is untrained in this craft, has learned as he worked always, working with matchstick has been no different. I am proud of his work, and love watching each project grow. We now look for a wool dray to copy....we know there is one in Kojanup (WA), but we are currently in Qld
