Spare parts

 Saw this picture online offering all these 54mm spares for a fiver plus postage-

I couldn’t resist as I need to restock the spares box. The horse legs will come in handy not to mention the arms and heads. Any thoughts on what to do with the cart wheels etc?

  1. You could make limbers from blocks of balsa small wooden blocks, plastic, etc and drill holes for axles before adding the wheels. You could also just lean the wheels on buildings or use them to represent blown up cannons, wagons and limbers.

  4. Dude: you can NEVER have too many cart/wagon wheels. Treasure them. You will soon find a use for them, even unto badly wanted logistics elements.
