    Guy Rixon's Shapeways shop

    Recently in the shop are fittings for 4-wheeled coaches of the GER. These "set C" fittings are the same as my "set A" for 6-wheeled coaches, but with the centre-axle fittings removed to reduce the printing cost. They have been printed and approved by a customer.

    Guy, once again, could these me re-scaled for 7mm? I did buy a set of the other GER 6 wheel ones you re-scaled and they were excellent. Thank you. But I also have etches for a 4 wheeled coach, and these would be perfect.

    Chris, whilst you may have decided against 7mm gearboxes, your loco kits would prove popular, especially since Agenoria has gone. They were a very popular range under the old owner. I for one would be after a Black Hawthorn in 7mm and probably one or two others. I also reckon the gearboxes would be good sellers.

    I was very surprised today to receive a response from Peter. Hopefully I may get a resolution. I am a little worried as he said he sent the goods to me early  in 2013, yet I have an email from him,10th Dec 2013 which states " I have not been able to complete your order as the etchers seem to have lost the tooling for the GER Sharpie, they now say they have found them and they will arrive, this was important as I have

    Orders from other customers." Perhaps he was getting me confused with another customer. (Here's hoping). I just want something for my £122 outlay, either goods or a refund. Fingers crossed.

    Do please beware before ordering (and paying). I have an outstanding order for a GER Little Sharpie  and some GER wagons that have been on order and paid for since 2012. I was told there might be a slight delay( a couple of months) after I'd already  waited six months and contacted Pete, but despite repeatedly emailing and calling, I have never had a refund. I do, almost as an anniversary thing, send an email, yearly now, just to enquire as to it's whereabouts, but never get a response.

    Essex is not out of range. Can you suggest a good two day show that I might offer the layout to?

    East Ham Finescale Exhibition, not that they have an exhibition this year, but their shows, when they happen are two day. Saw Trevor Nunn's East Lynn there a few years back.

    Ooh look, wooden clothes pegs.  Haven't seen these for years. As for the early push-on pegs that were probably made from beech in earlier times, they are probably made of balsa today haha! Everything has gone to pot and I have just paid Amazon a handsome sum for some pegs that I hope will last longer than a week!

     

    Oh, and the shed....Yes, its coming along nicely. The roof details should be lots of fun...

    Just had a look at the 7mm Millwall loco I might be able to print most of the locos which will make life easier.

    I note they have a different safety valve cover. As I have scratch built one in 7mm for the Millwall Extension railway, but need this ( no lathe skills yet), if you wanted to remove it, i'd buy the original from you? I have asked if he'd do this separate and am awaiting a response.

    Yes George,  229 looks like a fantastic model, can't wait to see it restored. Was it scratch-built? As far as dettol goes, do you dilute it at all? I had some issues with it and plastics, but it seemed to work fine on metals. I really like your B4 from the beginning of the thread, tell me, do any kit manufacturers make them?

     

    ATB,

    I think ABS do a kit for the B4? I'm sure it's still listed as available in their catalogue-ex Eric Underhill/Vulcan kits, unlike the Terrier,sadly.
