Although most of the EWBB stuff is gone now (The Panels seem to grow legs), we still have the complete MGB kits at at the Engineer School in Gagetown. Not only is it incredibly detailed, all the component weights are to scale as well, so you can go through the building and booming sequence and have actual centre of gravities and so on.

Here's a pic of yours truly building EWBB at 2 CER in Petawawa in 1995. I was on one of the last basic Field Engineer courses to be trained on the EWBB before we changed it up for ACROW. Funny, thanks to remotivation in the form of PT, I can still remember the EWBB bay tightening sequence, Rakers, Bracing Frames, Transom Clamps, and Sway Braces.... Chimo
