Weshty Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Hi lads. In between designing the Ammonia Rake, I got the chance to finish off a few little stocking fillers for the Yuletide season. Everybody now...."the holidays are coming, the holidays are coming..." Watch this space over the weekend... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weshty Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Well you've all been very patient. I'm loving some of the suggestions coming through, but given the work involved in the ammonia rake (more anon.) I did say it was a stocking filler. So here is the first one. The classic P&T Telephone Box, good for any layout from 1930-2000. €9 and €1p&p and will include the "telephone" wording to go inside the cap element as well as window acetate. It also includes the AB phone to fit inside! I will have a painted one later in the week. The window frames are seperate for ease of painting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riversuir226 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Excellent Des that looks really well, will be in touch over the next few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iarnrod Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Excellent Des that looks really well, will be in touch over the next few days. Top notch stuff. If the container flats and ammonia wagons are to this standard, should be well worth the wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enniscorthyman Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Very nice Des,I will have to get one,along with other bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttc0169 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 A useful addition to the Main Street at Tara Junction....nice one Des...I'll be in touch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weshty Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 (edited) Thanks lads, great interest shown so far (orders being placed 30 minutes after publication et al). And by the way, here is the AB Box and phone. Edited December 8, 2013 by Weshty better photo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRich Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 That's a really beautiful model Des, we probably passed them every day and never paid any attention to them. It really is important to make non railway items available, they can make, or break a layout if not there, and these will definitely fall into the former. You've played another blinder here Des, top marks. Rich, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Keegan Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 And by the way, here is the AB Box and phone Does the Phone work ? Sorry , could not resist. It will look good on Lucan South. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garfield Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Would I be right in saying Mr Glenderg had a hand in designing the phone box? Lovely model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weshty Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 The good Dr.'Derg provided the initial inspiration with his paper version, to have all those dimensions straight to hand was a mighty boost. Converting it to a etchable equivalent, well, sin scéal eile! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
