No shortage of volunteers to run it for you!!!! No point in imposing unnecessary limits - just do the whole island in 00 - it will fit neatly inside Phoenix Park. 6

Patrick Davey Posted 16 hours ago Posted 16 hours ago Love how the vertical face of the platform changes, suggesting a later extension. Superb! 1 2

LOL,but it wont fit in Phoenix Park! Ireland is 300 miles long and Phoenix Park is 2.6 miles (measured along Chesterfiield Avenue)

Ireland is 300 miles long and Phoenix Park is 2.6 miles (measured along Chesterfiield Avenue) Yeah, but the rails don't go right to the extremities. Don't be dispiriting the lad - he's probably already done about a quarter of it... 3
Darius43 Posted 2 hours ago Author Posted 2 hours ago Canopy building painted. Columns made using 2mm sq. Plastruct, plasticard and tape strips. Supporting header beam made from 2mm thick card. The columns slot into the beam and can be adjusted up/down so that they all touch the platform surface before final fixing. Cheers Darius 5
