All done! My first attempt to "Distress" a model.

Now that looks as accurate as can be!! Well done! I really like the dents and deformations on the top edge-totally accurate!

That looks pretty awesome. To make it a true New England roll-off you need the rusting hole-thru edges along the bottom.

Beautiful job. Very well done!

BTW, is that a standard roll-off container, or completely scratchbuilt? I've been looking for something like that for a while now...

You should put that prototype into production, like Remko, I've been looking for something like that for a while now.

When you showed the pics of construction it looked good but with the dents it looks just like the ones we see around here. Good job.
