For those who use instagram there is an interesting paper sculpture model of a Chummy on line made by a children's book writer and illustrator Chris Demarest. Find him on Instagram    Chrisdem51

They are - all sorts of unusual cars and bicycles. Sometimes it's not possible to right-click and "copy" a picture on the web, but by using a snipping tool anything can be saved. The one I use is called "Lightshot" and replaces PrintScreen. It's really handly and allows, among other things, annotation of pictures to explain what goes where, what to bend or cut, etc. For example:

Nice to see a shaper, no doubt with the Whitworth fast return gear...
Is there any chance that you could put a link to his Instagram account up here? He has made some delightful models of cars and motorcycles which I'm sure would be of interest to forum members.

I hope this works - it seems to, even without an Instagram account

Ah! The very clever Whitwork fast-return gear, now you're talking... the non-productive return stroke is faster that the forward cutting stroke: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gmdq16_HhLs
