51. A 'Sorbet course' : the weekend project.
Progress on the ballast and station platform being slower and less competent than wished this Bank Holiday, I finished a kit that has been cluttering my work-bench for years. The Ratio Lineside hut has been modified to be 'more Southern' with a pukka brick chimney and replacing the stone base with brick again.
The chimney is a piece of plastic rod with Milliput to embed it as cement. I was most pleased with still having the dexterity to attach the drain-pipe accurately. Even attempted chimney flashing. The door has yet to be fitted, as it has yet to be decided how to use the hut. The door-frame is wonky, and the brick-work courses do not line up on one corner, but it could have come out worse. A pleasing weekend project, I just need to finish that Foden Haulmaster next. And now back to the ironing and boot polishing...
