New Items for Christmas '13 from SSM

[Weshty]

Hi lads.

 

In between designing the Ammonia Rake, I got the chance to finish off a few little stocking fillers for the Yuletide season.

 

Everybody now...."the holidays are coming, the holidays are coming..."

 

 

 

Watch this space over the weekend...

[Dunluce Castle]

Can't wait to see what you release.

Line side buildings?

[Train model]

[enniscorthyman]

touch soon.

[RedRich]

Nice one Des, I'm looking forward to this.

 

Rich,

[BosKonay]

Ah Weshty - need more than that!!

[heirflick]

[Horsetan]

Something for steam?

[Dunluce Castle]

Jeep?

[Riversuir226]

Excellent, looking forward to it

[Mayner]

You big tease

[Horsetan]

Jeep?

 

That would take the wind out of Alan Doherty's sails / sales - he's had a "WT" at test etch stage for a while now.....

[Dunluce Castle]

Maybe a plastic WT class kit?

[Riversuir226]

Dare I say a resin 2600 cie railcar or a resin Bandon tank

[Weshty]

Well you've all been very patient. I'm loving some of the suggestions coming through, but given the work involved in the ammonia rake (more anon.) I did say it was a stocking filler.

 

 

So here is the first one. The classic P&T Telephone Box, good for any layout from 1930-2000.

€9 and €1p&p and will include the "telephone" wording to go inside the cap element as well as window acetate. It also includes the AB phone to fit inside!

 

I will have a painted one later in the week. The window frames are seperate for ease of painting

 

[Riversuir226]

Excellent Des that looks really well, will be in touch over the next few days.

Top notch stuff. If the container flats and ammonia wagons are to this standard, should be well worth the wait

[enniscorthyman]

Very nice Des,I will have to get one,along with other bits.

[ttc0169]

A useful addition to the Main Street at Tara Junction....nice one Des...I'll be in touch

[Weshty]

Thanks lads, great interest shown so far (orders being placed 30 minutes after publication et al).

 

And by the way, here is the AB Box and phone.

[RedRich]

That's a really beautiful model Des, we probably passed them every day and never paid any attention to them. It really is important to make non railway items available, they can make, or break a layout if not there, and these will definitely fall into the former. You've played another blinder here Des, top marks.

 

Rich,

[Joe Keegan]

And by the way, here is the AB Box and phone

 

Does the Phone work ?

 

 

 

Sorry , could not resist.

 

It will look good on Lucan South.

Would I be right in saying Mr Glenderg had a hand in designing the phone box? Lovely model.

[Weshty]

The good Dr.'Derg provided the initial inspiration with his paper version, to have all those dimensions straight to hand was a mighty boost.

 

Converting it to a etchable equivalent, well, sin scéal eile!

[BosKonay]

Stunning work Weshty!

[Weshty]

Folks,

 

Here is the second little item that I promised you before Christmas. The Wickam Inspection Car kit. Three of these were introduced in 1962 (711, 713 & 714)

 

The kit includes wheels, transfers, underframe, handrail wire, and acetate for windows and amber lighting. It has a fully detailed interior of seating and control wheel. The doors can be fixed open or closed.

 

It is designed to be motorised with a Black Beetle 35mm.

 

All for €22 and €3p&p.
