Get a decent pin vice and the best Drill bits outs there, Skip on the drill bits and expect the worst. Eileen emporium sell these separately. as opposed to the crappy multi drill bits in the plastic box you get in some shops. Pin vice : https://uk.farnell.com/eclipse/121/pin-vice-0-1mm/dp/146443?gross_price=true&CATCI=pla-57332432781&CAAGID=14406255429&CMP=KNC-GUK-GEN-SHOPPING-ALLPRODGROUPS&CAGPSPN=pla&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI_rjR7ajJ3QIVled3Ch2b5AHREAQYASABEgKzE_D_BwE&CAWELAID=120173390000050531 Drill bits: https://eileensemporium.com/index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=category&task=listing&cid=1357&name=drills-drilling&Itemid=189 using the correct tools carefully you should not have any issue

The 201s will bounce back once there off the shelves, Sure is an ugly looo though plus the fact the it hauled mostly Looooooooong Trains. Money also is thin on the ground with some fab stuff coming out these days with new Irish an UK outline stuff bursting at the seams.

Georgeconna replied to Warbonnet's topic in General Chat
Sorted So. The cost of an Extra €50.00 is a bit heavy so I will stick with the Switch. much simpler to. -

Fat Controller is redundant and now replaced by a Woman so yep it is being bent towards being PC. Let hope she is up to the Job. Sorry bout the Daily Mail, 1st link that came up. I'll use the Guardian the next time I am sure there much more balanced. No wonder Hornby dropped the range. I can see loads of these sitting around the place. As you say its all about the money, money, money.

Parkside Dundas Brake Van O Gauge. work in progress
Georgeconna replied to Georgeconna's topic in British Outline Modelling
era there will be a bit if dirt in it yet Richie, the Varnish was still cooking off there at the time of the pics so I will do that in 2 weeks time all going well. -
Hi M8s, Struggling away with the modelling Lark. The good Weather does not help but on the plus side great for Paint Drying but kids and work have me bushed. Treated myself to this O kit and it turned out pretty ok. I wonder did O gauge get its name from people saying "Oh thats expensive!!" .Some errors were made by me in the rush to make my little train like one side actually being glued upside down FFS. Slight Preshading with white variations on the planks to get a subtle difference int he Texture. the Decals went on Sweet and were included not like the OO gauge model I recently built. A Dapol OO Brake van and N gauge Siphon are pictured for size comparison. Anyway here's some picture of my Little Big Train. Of course it is SR!! Hope Dapol bring out some other little SR Tanks, A little P class would be nice as the roxly Kit itself is pretty Expensive when you add in the Extras! http://www.roxeymouldings.co.uk/product/305/7l10-secr-p-class-0-6-0t/.

How long before IR H&S say the Bridge will be too Dangerous to use for Pedestrians and will close the thing to Greenway anyway. As above Derailed Said, useless timetable leaving at pointless times, No Sunday service so who is gonna use this to travel to Wexford over the weekend. Stoke of a Pen to Close but Millions to restore should it need to be re installed at some stage. I remember the ol Fella telling me that they would see the Train Pulling Away from the Harbour Railway station as the boat was minutes from Rosslare. That was years back. Building a new Station away from the Ferry Terminal does not help matters either. Crazy Decision.
