  1. "limit their purchases to what's available in Irish model shops" There in lies the big issue, Popped into the LMS the other day very little paint, Ones I needed not there (Humbrol) Incomplete range of Humbrol Sprays (went to Halfords and dropped 40 notes) no Balsa wood, super Super glues, none of the KS brass I needed. Model Railway Shelves were sparse I could say. I said it here before there is a good opportunity to capture the Irish based UK buyers here with a properly stocked shop as it will get daft buying in small stuff from the UK.
  2. Might be late to the Party on this one but what a Fab idea! check from 4.45 mins. Interesting Video too. Wonder so the A class has a disappearing Fran in it. Seriously good looking loco to.
  3. They might be adding in the Freight cost to the invoice total as Vat would be paid on both these together.
  4. Thanks for that, placed and order with Cornwall Model Boat a few days ago. They are after sending this now with Fed Ex. God Knows what I will get caught for a handling charge now, It won't be €3.50 that for sure. Ar$e.
  5. Man Alive, What a place to visit!. I'd have a Great Holiday with you kid!!, leave the missus at home the next time I see there is a Paddle Steamer on the lake too, Is that in operation?. If Only I visited Germany years ago to savour these delights!

  12. Davc I think had some snazzy stuff joing the boards on his Layout to join up. might of been all straight sections though. After also doing a baseboard join on a curve I used PCB board with Rails soldered to them. Not got round to cutting them through just yet. This is behind the scenic area so is heavy duty.

  18. Sweet , Normally anything in a Fancy box does not last too long on my house but this one surely will! Looks Fab BTW.
  19. Cheatline done, Was worried this would bit come off giving the Curves, Lumps and bumps, Used a Pencil on a Square and ran it around the hull to get consistent height, but it has turned up very nice indeed , Very happy, used anthracite grey instead straight black.

Test Fitting of a lot of the deck bits also. Looking the bizz now! Hopefully on the water at the end of next month! Bit below the bow are from the Albatross which came to Grief Tuesday night due to Receiver issue. took off and then nosed in from 30FT. Shame as it was a lovely Flyer and Parkzone don't do them anymore but I will have to replace this as it was me Dads one! Dynam do a slightly bigger one. Hope he wont notice.

  25. Hi Lads, The Finishing line is coming up soon I hope unless the misses pushes me to lay a patio out the garden but we are in situ now for 20 years and never seemingly needed one till now. In Ireland we would use it for about 3 days I expect a year so complete waste of good cold cash, Pond enlargement would be better! Anyhow a quick visit to Halfords last weekend before another a climb of Ireland highest mountain and which was Probably my 3rd retail visit over the past 8 months was taken to get some primer for the hull this was sprayed on and any blemishes dealt with. Next was the Pre Shading of black and white to take the boring flat grey scape off of the hull. another cost of the Red needs to be done yet but took her out in the natural light to see what needed to be done and the pics below are the results. This was all done by Airbrush. A Badger 155 Anthem I have had for years. Looking up at O'Sheas Gully Looking at the trail up from Cronins yard. Onthe way down the Zig Zags.
