have several and some have even started

1.  model of brides Grandfathers farm, house, barn smoke house

2.  two railroad bridges, one trestle the other steel

3.  one auto (old time one way) bridge

4.   country church

5.  flatcar with WWII Sherman

Have several boxes with projects started and one thing has me sort of stumped and that would be the chain tie downs for the tank,  i have a pretty section of chain that sure looks scale for a logging type chain, able to fabricate "S" hooks, but the fly in the ointment are scale come alongs/chain tie downs

the kind where the slack of chain taken up and the tie down is wired shut to prevent coming open.  When i was a kid i worked on asphalt paving crew for summer jobs (great foot ball prep shoveling hot asphalt) and i must have worked and released hundreds of tie downs on flat bed trailors for Rollers, Small cat tractor,  if it could go on a trailer it got tied down by me

but darn if i can make one, and not having much luck in finding one

I hear you there.

I too have looked but not found them.

We called them boomers in Colorado.

We used them to secure loads of hay bales or anything else needing hauling.

You have a good picture there of it.

If you have a larger copy of the picture please send it too me, I will attempt to use my 3D printer to make them when it finally arrives.

Yes, I'm still waiting but I understand I bought a product in development and it hasn't been as long as we wait for a Cataloged Train engine!

And the recent delays were a combo of product improvements and a Longshoremen strike.
