Mad McCann

Well, I got three in OK-ish.

Psyching myself up for another today! ;-)

Were the bad heids caused by modelling?

All sorts mate. All sorts!

I suspect that if you can`t fit hornblocks you are unlikely to be able to lay or build tip-top track......

I guess I’m screwed then...

I've never regretted going down the 7mm route, even better now with all the rtr stuff now available. Much easier to build if you have sausage fingers like me....

That would be a rather diminutive loco, Ivan.

It’s like those wax cylinders of yours, Obi Wan, but on a flat disc 12” across... ;-)

Depends who’s on the single, Horse!

Gadening time definitely drawing near - took herself out to buy some seeds today. All she needs to do now is dig the veg patch and get sowing.

And I thought you had a dug.

I have, but the dug has the courtesy to go away from the hoose to do her business...

Weathering's the fun bit!

You are more than 'dead good' Dave you're work is professional and if anyone wants images of same pm me and Ill be happy to oblige.

I might add you are amongst the most reasonable out there too..probably too cheap and this may put customers off but believe me the final finish is professional.

There all doing it now - even Oxford Rail (in anticipation of lighting that they didn't fit anyway) Mind you at least Bachmann get the wheel diameter and the underframe length correct.... The bogies would have worked okay if they had retained the close-coupling arrangement of the B4's but added in a rather "slack" end to the LMS bogies (P4/EM modellers mileage may vary)

Get your order into MJT Dave (the dog) not Dave (the Buffer)

The older design are better and work well.

Is this something to do with sport?

@Hroth. Ouch! ;-)

In the eyes of the BBC et al the curlers are only ever Scottish if they lose, always British if they win. Usual story....

... and it's only February.

"Best year for new models ever!"

... Only if you can afford them.

Ah, the call of the borders and now with a G5 sneaking in as well.

Can't wait for mine, got 4 on order...

I know a Bob Payne -

How do you fit the bearings to him without the drill?

Dave DCC Concepts do a simple reamer set or Knowle Wagon works do a brass bearing tool.

Mad; Beware the Force....

Going OO-SF next?

00pur perhaps?

Cool, man!

Sorry Mad, much prefer a bit of David Gilmour

Both of them would do me.

Played Flugel horn with SOUL . . rest in peace

Great brass man.

You could have saved money by staying with EM?

...or if you had to spend money, you could have gone to P4.... ;-)

Two rewheeling jobs in 4 years? You're more prolific than me!

Neighbour lost 2 ridge tiles, which flew off roof and landed on their drive, just missing the cars.

Waking up, we appear to have had an extreme weather non-event here.

Is Carlisle near Georgia?

EM or EMF?

Ach, I know Dave, but there comes a time where you have to recognise your limits. :-)

Sometimes it's not the modellers fault but the carp he is supplied with.
