Fischers body coach

 Recently a group of friends visited my exhibition at the National Coach Museum, having been delighted with Napoleon's coach and the history associated with it, they asked me to show how it was built.

Because it was a work done about ten years ago, with a long construction, very technical with a lot of detail and detail, about 300 photos and 22 pages of construction plans. For this reason I never published this work. But because of so much interest and sympathy it was difficult to say no, my Facebook friends too, will certainly like to see this compilation that will be phased for a better understanding of the progress I continue in this work, I will start with the wheels, axles, box and so on. on. In the next article I will address the interesting story associated with it, I hope you like it.
