Jules' workbench-Kits and scratchbuilt


Recommended Posts

Hey all, I am new here at RMweb!

 

Been modelling for a while, but I wanted to get more social. I am in the process of building an L shaped layout in OO. However, progress is not great because wagon projets take over and I'm lazy!! :nono:

 

But I'll need to make use of my time-exams are coming!!

 

I am hoping to have a semi scratchbuild MHA "Coalfish" (a few may be aware) from a plasticard body and the chassis of a cheap (£9) HAA and the wagon will (hopefully) be different from the Hornby tooling. The Hornby model is the original body "Coalfish" (394001-394400) but I'm trying to make one from the later batch (394500-394999 and 396000-396165) with less ribs. I am waiting for the Evergreen strip to make them!!

BTW, do any of you guys know how to remove the hopper body from the HAA without cutting the 4 lugs off at the bottom?

 

Cheers and good luck with your projects!

 

Jules
