Mrkirtley800 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I haven't looked at RMW for a few days, beavering away at my conversion of Canal Road to something I can manage. So glad to know you are moving forward, upward and onward. Well done Andy. Now how about a nice EM gauge Midland layout? OK I'm off, where's me coat ! Derek.

HeavyDuty Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Thanks Kevin, I wasn't sure whether to start the topic yet or wait till the shed was up and lined. but at least this way I can include the shed build that might be of interest to some people as well. Meant to say, nice AXE behind you, I had the Jazz and Pression when I was in a band, fareham f 19 03 05.JPG Now I just have a Jasmine Acoustic (by Takamine), and a 335 copy. Bodge Andy, a few comments: 1. I very much like the layout concept and will be watching how it develops! 2. "Last great project?" This reminds me of my grandfather who purchased his "last new automobile" four or five times. 3. Are you really bassless at the moment? (I'm another low ender.) 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Ken, yes I tried to get into a band up here in Derbyshire after over 10 years with my last band down South but to no avail so I sold it all in the end including my USA Strats and Epiphone Les Paul. MANY REGRETS. hahhaha What Guitars have you got? And for last project, did you notice the ? at the end. hahaha Bodge. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Pete, as the thread is more about music at the moment you guys out there might be able to advise me on a SMALL practice amp, I want fairly clean Bluesy sounds from my 335, think BB King sort of sounds. I've been looking at the Vox Pathfinder 10 and the Fender 15g, i'll be mainly through headphones. NO LIVE GIGS, hahahhah Bodge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus 37 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Great to have you back Andy. It's good to know your now feeling up to getting back into your modelling, just don't get over doing it. Can't wait to seeing this develop but don't rush on our behalf make sure you're fully up to it. Take care mate, and again it's really good to have you back. All the best. Marcus.

Andrew P Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 Cheers Kevin, I'll have a look through but I'll probably end up with a Solid State as the main budget is going on the shed and railway, this is for just a few hours relaxation a week. But thanks anyway. Bodge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Marcus, its good to actually have a plan, I have just one big concern and that's the lifting section across the door and I think Big Jim had/ has a lifting section so I will have a look at his thread later and pinch some ideas.

RMweb Premium Physicsman Posted August 10, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 10, 2014 Well, Andy. Looks like your new thread has received the thumbs up! Gratifying to see the "usual suspects" out in force to offer their support and advice. I think this is going to be a very popular thread (what's new when it involves Bodge?) - "going viral" in the buzzword term at the moment. Any sign of grass yet?

I'm sure you're going to enjoy your (maybe) LGP. I'll be following your progress. It will no doubt be informative and entertaining. Have fun Best wishes for the project...
