I was looking forward to build a wagon/cart for this challenge. I built a enclosed one first, but It looked very "old western" so I went for a open design.
Choosing a merchant was the hardiest part, and what to sell... As I didn't want to go with the common farmer or blacksmith wagon, I went for a radical market choice :D

C&C always appreciated!

Seven dasy to go, some WIPs over the table and some time to build! It's gonna be an awesome week :D

Nice job! It looks great! Bravo for trying a round tower! Everything about it turned out great! One critique I have is the roof... The gaps a little too large IMO, but it is round, so it is hard to get a roof like that! Great job! Keep it up!

I had a rough time setting up that bridge. Round cone roofs are hard to build! I agree that the gaps are a bit larger than I hoped for. Anyway, as I said on the Flickr post, I found the technique for it pretty cool by the end and guess other builders with more resources could pull them off and refine the technique. I will be looking forward to try it again in the future, if I am able to get some more of the 1x2x3 slopes.
