The guy who sold me the Max Rob and gauge also makes a poly version of the fork used in MM2.
He sent me the dinki di label with the wheel and i thought the two together would look cool.
The guy found the same fork as used in the movie in a shop in London after years of searching and it turned out to be sterling silver and a date
stamp of 1830. Am very happy with his work and the fork is one of the best polys ive ever seen.

Love it Tim Cool As Neil said: the fork is very well made for the material used to do it; and the can is something else also!

The fork only needs a little dark wash to give it a slight patina to the silver to truly capture the feel of the film, but the can needs to be open with something resembling dog food in it. Wink Other pretty awesome Very Happy Love em'.

Thanks very much guys,
Good call Andy, will try rubbing some water based black paint on the fork
but will need some suggestions for the fake dog food. Still trying to find a cheap and accurate can opener which is a British Army knife i beleive.
