If he started now, he could have it available for Christmas.

I don't now if they're still there, but there used to be "Trains may pass at speed" signs on the wall in Heuston, right by the buffers.

Ballybrophy had this... ..replaced by this, before it could be corrected.

The real one is only a few miles from me here, I was there last year - I can remember when you could still drive over it. Edit - Mmm, it says here that it was closed to traffic in 1935, but I have a clear memory of taking a motorbike over it in 1976/7. http://www.ironbridge.org.uk/collections/the-iron-bridge/conservation-and-restoration/

It says it's about 1:450 - 86x37x42mm (3.4x1.5x1.7 inches). http://severnmodels.com/epages/eshop1179816.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/eshop1179816/Products/S1

For a good while, I've been meaning to get a small cutting mat for the travelling toolbox. Today I saw this for £5 and decided to bite the bullet - the knife is actually surprisingly good, too, with ten spare resharpenable blades, also. The fitted blade is spring-retractable by means of a "squeeze-clip" and there's a guard to prevent accidental activation. The cutting mat is a good bit thicker than the usual variety - 200 x 130 mm. Useful, if you're on the move - or pushed for space.

The tool sets are almost jewelry. Lovely stuff.

Please don't overdo the warming of the can - I don't want to be responsible for the sort of thing that happened a couple of hundred yards away from my house on Wednesday.... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/12180646/Stafford-fire-warehouse-blaze-threat-to-thousands-of-litres-of-oil.html

Maybe try warming the can (a little bit!) and spraying from slightly further away - practice on some unimportant things..?

What did the Ivory Coast ever do to them, anyway? -

Health and Safety gone mad... -
Are they "virtual things" - for use in a simulator game?

Enough to set your teeth on edge......

Still on a dental theme, the vibratory toothbrushes can be quite handy for cleaning your intricate parts. The handles that take AA cells are much better than the rechargeable handles, I find - and, of course, you can use rechargeable cells in them anyway.

Bugger! I got distracted about getting the gauge right.

If you can't operate them directly with a straight rod, you might try Bowden cables. It's a bit fiddly to get working right, but reliable, when you do. The ones in the picture both worked pairs of linked points which operated synchronously, if that makes sense.
-
Looks like you had a ballast, anyway.
-
Great work! OK, it's a lot of ballasting, but the shovel might not be the best tool for application on such a fine scale....

Interesting - this is a bit earlier. http://maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,711048,733307,11,9
