thirty2a Posted July 5, 2020 Author Share Posted July 5, 2020 Pipe bridge just visible, work in progress but fairly happy with it. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thirty2a Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) It might be a micro so who says you need loads of room to do O gauge!? Edited July 7, 2020 by thirty2a 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thirty2a Posted July 8, 2020 Author Share Posted July 8, 2020 (edited) ditched the middle (home made ) box file, the layout was just to big with it! what color should the buffer be? red with white or white with red?! everyone seems to do it differently.. the sentinel seems to have burnt out its Lima power bogie so, looks like the Lima 4F is going to have to make a bit of a sacrifice ...

thirty2a Posted July 9, 2020 Author Share Posted July 9, 2020 surgery done, just need to tweak the fitting in the sentinel ... hopefully can resurrect the 4F at some point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thirty2a Posted August 24, 2020 Author Share Posted August 24, 2020 22 minutes ago, JimRead said: Hello 32a, I read all your thread and the thing I liked first was the 'cheapskate' hooray I thought, same here! I have made a 12ft wheelbase coach and I make cheapskate wagons from card (£10 each) if you would like the PDF about doing it that I authored please send me a message. Also includes drawing and pics of the coach. May I ask where the warehouse building came from? I do like the pipe on the bridge as well that's a good idea. If you fancy making a proper shunting controller I have another PDF that assumes you know nothing about electronics, costs about £20 instead of £50, the components that is not the PDF :-) Cheers Jim Jim, most of the rolling stock has been bargain basement or in need of attention stuff from exhibitions, they are the next job to be honest, some of them are OK and just need a bit of paint and some glue.. look forward to the PDF's .. the warehouse is a Skytrex item from Alley Palley a few years back, will need to read my own thread to remember when exactly ! I'm still not 100% happy with the color but it will get there.. the pipe bridge is also still a work in progress, who said micro layouts are quick!

thirty2a Posted December 29, 2020 Author Share Posted December 29, 2020 A bit of tinkering recently, re worked the pipe bridge a little, finally added some paint to the buffer and re wired the dedicated controller. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
