RMweb Gold Robert Shrives Posted February 4, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 4, 2021 Here is the roadside of the development print, crisp print, I think some fun to be has as the batten and board build almost invisible so some 5 thou micro strip might be required or careful paint shading. But certainly has the feel and almost here the clatter of a pausing 26 on load 3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark. Mark, All good and calm, even if real network happily lumbers from crisis to disaster! The Open factory site in Edinburgh and Pop up design crew are involved in house and kit moves , hopefully taking orders very shortly and then items should repopulate. I will advise when I know more - but keep checking back on the site as hits count! Certainly it the building prints as well as the bridge, Engine shed and signal cabin have then its more tools we can use in recreating a lovely part of the country in miniature, important as going in RW is not possible today.

definate maybe Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Thanks for the reply. I knew they were in the process of moving but noticed it was only the railway options not showing on Open Factory so wasn’t sure is they were separating out operations as well. after years of wanting a far north layout but not thinking the kits were available to make it happen, a wait is not an issue and the progress so far is more than I could have imagined. Take care and Stay safe Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Alder Posted March 1, 2021 Author Share Posted March 1, 2021 https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/OpenFactory Not a lot is available on the page just now although he can do others from before but Iain Ross is planning discussions with him re alternative materials to reproduce the likes of board and batten more cleanly as it is impossible to smooth out striations from the current resin used. This is in hiatus just now until movement is less restricted. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Alder Posted June 6, 2021 Author Share Posted June 6, 2021 Here are shots of Plockton and Dornoch plonked on the layout to see what they looked like. Still some detailing to tidy up and then put on bases - these ones are for Pop Up's shop - and I left the wall detail as it came on the kit. The lack of relief battens aren't too obvious, I think, especially to the eye rather than the camera. 8 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Alder Posted June 10, 2021 Author Share Posted June 10, 2021 Dornoch plonked and plinthed ready to head off to Pop Up. A lovely little thing, I must say; who could resist building a model of the station with this available...... And a couple of bench shots showing bits unseen in earlier pics. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Alder Posted June 13, 2021 Author Share Posted June 13, 2021 (edited) Posted already on the Pop Up thread in Smaller Suppliers, but for completeness, here are one or two of the latest batch now ready for going off to Pop Up's new showrooms.

RMweb Premium Dava Posted August 19, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 19, 2021 I’ve just ordered the 7mm scale GNoSR waiting shelter, looks a compact kit for £20, ideal for small layout. I passed on the Black 5 kit but a Barclay pug would have been a different matter! Dava Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
