Is not part of the problem that the link between "parents" and "responsible" seems to be getting weaker as time goes on

Opens ok for me, on a Chromebook

Sounds like a good idea, smaller the cup, higher the pirce: N gauge tea: £1.50 OO Gauge tea: 75p I think I'll settle for an O gauge cuppa!

Thanks for the advice. I've purchased a Gaugemaster hand held controller.

Your statement about requiring 4 amps is correct. The power supply is not sufficient, and either as @Edwin_m has said the supply will cut out, or it will "go pop"

Going through my late son's stuff I've come across a lot of the instalments of this publication, (not sure if it's a complete set) together with the parts from each issue, most of which are still in sealed packs. Is it worth putting on eBay, (it seems a pity to bin a lot of new stuff); if so what is the best way to list it, each item as an individual lot, all as one lot, or 4 or 5 in a lot.

I'm putting together a 'Starter Set' from my late son's collection, for a 7 year old who is showing an interest in model railways. Unfortunately I don't have a power/speed control unit for it, (I let someone else have the Clipper my son had as I thought it was a bit too complicated for a beginner) so I'm looking for suggestions on the best one to get; something basic but reliable, Hornby, Bachmann??

Heard of a similar thing happen. Tooling/parts production done in China. Soon after fake completed items started appearing on the market. This went a stage further though, the Chinese poached the marketing director & chief engineer, who had the cheek to phone up a colleague asking for assembly info he'd forgotten to copy before he left the company

A big Amer?

I'm looking for some help/advice from the collective RMWeb wisdom. I'm listing some stuff on Ebay for the family of a deceased friend. One of the items is a Black & Decker 18V drill. It works ok but I've noticed when the On switch is released there appears to be momentary flashing between the commutator and the brushes, accompanied by a slight electrical burning smell. The item appears to be almost new, so it may well be something like the brushes bedding in. I want to be honest when listing the item, but I don't want to add detail which might deter potential buyers unnecessarily. Any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated

If you're quick there's one in Plymouth at the moment, but I think you'd need a big drone to deliver it. :)

Not railway related but this one made me smile: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Electrical-Press-Button-Switch-Metal/dp/B004H8ETJ4/ref=asc_df_B004H8ETJ4/? I'd love to see what happened if you put 240 amps through it; and apparently it can be wifi connected too

Knowing how to use one; some don't know what a screwdriver is (except perhaps a mixture of vodka and orange)!!

Good ro see the first response is a positive one :)
