Jaysuuuuus anto! Wasnt expecting that, nor have i laughed as much;)

A book on wanderings in south africa/burma road/belfast in the 70's with plenty photos to come so, before that "fat controller" gives you the curly finger?

+ 1 ..and my girl Sambo on page 3!

A bit like the system on RMweb where people can acknowledge "helpful/useless/funny/etc." would be a really really nice feature to have. Anyone on smortphones or tablets can contribute without trying to type on those teeny phones.

Tidy bit of work nelson. Very impressed by the scratchbuilding too. R.

Nelson, Did you scratchbuild the outside w irons, leaf springs and axel boxes? Richie

Ha ha! Hadn't heard of aul "Kim Dotcom" for a while...

Lovely work indeed, and a tasty start on the brake van. The reference to mice and men - is it the goods wagon that concerns you somehow? Richie.

...which possibly explains why it's not workin

Superb Purple. My inner nerd just expoded.

Cos the licence payer can share it about with his mates, or produce 1 or 40 or 400, and the licensor gets rid.

I had the same thoughts Eoin. The word is "control" and the only way to have it, is to buy the machinery and produce and sell oneself. Once a 3D file is out in the wild, it's out of your control.

A square of styrene over the BR doors, and some ribs to match either of the photos above. Add paint, dirt, decals - done.

Never mind the finish, it takes hours of work to produce the 3d model properly, so the end cost isnt just the price of the PLA filament. Brass and resin will be around for a long time yet.

Glued one of SSM's 30 ton brake kits recently with ZAP glue, medium CA+. No problems whatsoever, and a clever tip on it for detailed working.

My great idea about one day creating a small shelf diorama for exhibiting have just evapourated. Hard to lug that amount of kit around, plus I've no curtains to spare....!

I've a piece of rusty sheet metal here dave. How many jou want?

Managed to get on a tablet CG let me explain. The scale of your goods shed is bang on, they were enormous compared to their station brethren and i think you've captured it wonderfully. The problem is that the station building is one of the lowest on the network and makes the shed seem out of scale, when its not! If you can cut out the mdf section of platform and drop down the building, it will work. I think ballybrophy has something similar. I know it's a hoor cutting wills sheet, but you should only have to do it on the entry/exit arches, and these generally have about a 4mm clearance from the top of steam locos cabs to the arch, so i hope its not a chore too much. A couple of pieces of scored balsa wood to represent sliding doors over the 3 opes would finish it off nicely. Btw, the two six wheelers with cattle wagon and goods van behind scene is superb. This has great potential to be a "timeless" layout. Richie

on phone cg so, forgive brevity goods shed drop to baseboard level and add greater distance between it and stion. love roof . add,balsa s doors too

Lovin it Dave, well done. The track weathering in particular is very effective. I do like the beach bit too, very nice indeed. R I like the wall clock also, any chance you could get me a pic next time your over?

Can a mod sticky the above post. I think he's Tim Shackleton - (same enamel colours etc.) Great tips.

Sick, but funny, puppies the pair of ye. Thanks for fixing it for me!

Lovely work Thump. Care to share the technique? Acrylic/enamel? really tidy , top of the range.
