It takes Kraftwerk to be that good.

Jawohl, Herr General!

Mmm. Kraftwerk

Excellent news, every chap needs a man cave:-)

Indeed. The damp-proof membrane, insulation and floor boards have been down for several weeks. Now enough timber for the stud walls will arrive on Friday. Once that is cut and erected I only need insulation, skins, door, mouldings, ceiling,... It'll be a while yet then :|

Top hat bearings are only for formal occasions.

Nice one!! My usual sin is bits of plastic whe i have been stripping cable ends! Or worse blobs of solder!!

You can't be having a worse time than I'm having with snapping drill bits.

I already ran out of small drill bits. The worse thing is when you cannot remove the tip from the workpiece and have to start over.

On the other hand, if it's Jimi Hendrix, all you've done is move next door!

It sounds like a bad case of 'earworms' (Ohrw

Worse: Ace of base.

Ahhhhh - the old push to annoy type switch...

I could still fit them but would have to remember to turn them off again after uncoupling. Not a good move methinks.

There's more where that came from...

Hopefully. I bought one for size and replanning. I will need at least another 6, excluding signals.

I was in that pickle a while back and I've never looked back point motors all the way from now on.

Hmmm, in Rugby we've just had our worst snow of the weekend

Needed a Ski lift yesterday :-/

No snow here in Cornwall. Indeed, no snow yet this whole winter! Balmy Kernow, I call it. :-)

"S&M" Tools??? Are they really called that?

Really. I promise.

I'd like you to post a photo of their stand in the "Things That Make You " thread, please.

maybe Kenton's right

I know how much that hurts: I lost half a tooth in a fight with a tanker hose ina my first job. I got my front teeth crowned last year at a horrific price but they are much better than a regularly replaced filling.

I don't know what Kenton said. I have been a little accident prone this last few days, which is why the lathe has not been turned on to make lamp cases that I need to make for some signals.

You & your hands! Is it going to affect your modelling schedule bearing in mind your exhibition commitment?

Last week I was filing down some drivers seats for a little 04. When I'd finished I noticed I'd filed right through my skin. I was hoping for black seats, not red!

No Ian. I caught the top of my second finger on the rear of the scalpel blade. I treated myself to a No4 Swan Morton yesterday and the blade is longer than the Xacto ones I'm used to. It wasn't a great day tbh. I burned lunch too

Excellent. It must have been a 'shake, rattle 'n roll' trip :-)

There was some shaking when helping Cheltenham and it's train start again after it had slipped to a stop up the 1in60 from Alton.

Post some pictures for us? All I have is an 8.15 start on the platform at Staverton!

Oh go on... pull the other one!

I can when I've built them. I bought two :-) I see the nanny didn't like the acronym used by the developers of the S4 society product.
