Of course Clive may simply have printed a solid block of plastic and then whittled away at it with his trusty knife until he had a set of retracted LNER gangway coach buffers. 1 1 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a list of projects for you! richard Hi Richard, Time on my hands, I have been told I need to sort out the boundary fencing and hedges all 1992.57 ft of it. Decorate my new bedroom. Train the puppy. Help next door take down two dead trees (the wind on Saturday took down one of his alive trees). Walk the dogs and remember to put the bin out tomorrow. What do you want? And do you have the 3D drawings? If you have the drawings are the parents of the poor child you bullied asked nicely to do them aware? 3 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Clive, Thank you, I was considering the Photon X ( sounds like summat Dr.Who uses ! ) and will most likely be getting it soon, and thanks for the resin pointer too. I hope it produces many items of decent quality for you mate as those buffers look very good. G 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesysmith Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 a 3d printer, and here was I thinking Clive was into back and white photos because of his poor grasp of technology. I knew it was only a disguise to cover over his lack of paint on his models LOL. Also, why do so many people bid on the old triang/Hornby mk1 full brakes? They are only useful for cut`n`shuts, being the wrong size for a BG. For the price some people pay you can get the better replica one, and that is the right size at least. 4 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted November 1, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 1, 2021 Sounds a bit like 'Animal Farm' when comparing DCC and a 3D printer - something like 2 wires good, three Ds better. 1 1 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheesysmith Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 A quick question, if I may. I am trying to make the different versions of the craven DMU, and was looking at the photos of the parcels unit/129. Looking at the photos, are the marker lights mounted differently from the normal cravens, looking like they are a bit further inboard under the cab windows? Would be logical, as they did have the earlier MU cables mounted on the cab fronts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be logical, as they did have the earlier MU cables mounted on the cab fronts. I looked at some of the pictures on the Railcar site and the lights don't seem to be mounted differently to me. In fact, the lights seem to be outside of the MU jumper sockets if anything. I had a go at a Class 129 a while ago, a DC Kits version slightly modified. Don't forget to remove the destination indicator, it's often left on, even on commercially available models! 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The marker lights are lower down than on a class 105, is it to clear the jumper cables? https://railcar.co.uk/images/6584 I haven't posted a song for a while, not sure if this has been posted or not. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
