davefromacrossthepond Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 All, Just wanted to summarize my recent purchase from LCUT. To assist in planning my layout, I wanted to get a couple of the LCUT OO retaining walls and tunnel pieces. To make sure I could correctly pay for my order (via Paypal), I sent Jakub a quick email on 13 August listing what I was anticipating purchasing. Here's the timeline: 13 August - Sent inquire listing kits I was interested in and asking for shipping cost to United States 13 August - Received response from Jakub that listed a very reasonable shipping charge and offer to invoice me via Paypal 14 August - I replied to Jakub saying I wanted to purchase the items and asking him to send an invoice 14 August - Jakub emailed me a Paypal invoice 15 August - I made payment 15 August - Jakub sent an email indicating that he had received payment. I have to say, fantastic customer service! Even with my little order, Jakub/LCUT immediately answered each of my emails in a friendly way indicating to me that my order was indeed important. Today (23 August) there was a box in my mailbox from LCUT. All arrived in great shape and I can't wait to start these kits so that I can continue my layout planning. Great job LCUT!

RMweb Gold colin penfold Posted December 12, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 12, 2018 I have thanked him privately but also wanted to add another positive post on here to recommend Jakub and his services. I have made a few orders recently and each one has arrived the next working day. On a recent order i read the quoted dimensions on the Lcut website and ordered 27 roof supports. When they arrived they were too big. I queried this with Jakub and he understood how i had misread the site and actually volunteered to custom make the supports to the size I needed. Even those got done in a few days with the Peterborough show in between and with full email communication throughout. Absolutely brilliant customer service as well as a very clever, useful product range. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Vecchio Posted December 12, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 12, 2018 Dear L-cut creative I love your stuff and I just enjoyed the build of a 7mm midland signal box. Parts are fitting very well, I pre-painted window frames and all wooden panels for the corners etc . I painted also the inside (upstairs), as a signal box needs to show a little what is inside... I reinforced the corners in invisible places by using triangular balsa profiles. There is only one point where I am not happy with - the distance between steps. Look at the stairs in the picture in post #282. 6 steps for a height of approximately 2 metres. If you look at pictures of the real thing you will notice that there are 10 or 11 steps. How I worked around is to use the card from the roof variant (which has the same thickness as the stairs) and made steps in-between. I would also use a slightly thinner card for the stairs as the thickness used now corresponds with a little more than 5cm or 2" So my suggestion is to re-think the stairs a little. As I am currently not at home I cannot link a picture of my build but will do that in the evening. all the best Vecchio Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Vecchio Posted December 12, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 12, 2018 As said before - see here my modified version. The building will be used on Frimingham, the MKMRS 0-gauge layout. First without flash DSC04951 DSC04957 Now with flash DSC04955 For the interior I used etched kits from Severn Model. The lights are my own creation. DSC04954 Happy modelling! 6 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the feedback on the steps. There is something I can do about it. I have material that is 1mm thick as opposed to 1.4mm. We use it for the O gauge platform paving. I cannot promise we will be able to rework the staircase any time soon but I will see what I can do. Lastly its not been published yet but we have the LNER signal box coming to O gauge in next few days (if all goes well today). We have started to produce some 3D printed finals for it and they will also fit the MR signal box. We will be repacking the MR signal boxes to include them as an option as soon as have time to do it. Would you like to receive some for your MR signal box? If you get in touch with me at contact@lcut.co.uk I will send you some.

I have to say the original ones were quite delicate so I am happy to upgrade it to the 3D ones. By the way the 3D quality is very good. no lines visible. Many thanks and Merry Christmas!

Calidore Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) I feel I must add to the positive feedback already much in evidence for LCUT on here. I’ve ordered from Jakub a few times now and can always rely on a single working day for processing time and then delivery on the following day. The QC is perfect with every item arriving crisply cut and well packed — this really is the standard for small suppliers to aspire to and it’s the kind of service which wins repeat business by being so reliable. Big thumbs up! Adam Edited January 21, 2020 by Calidore 2 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brossard Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 I thought I'd share my efforts at a couple of buildings. These have been languishing for quite some time as I got on with other things. Single road engine shed (B 70-01): My modifications are extensive. Firstly, I doubt I can make a decent job of painting the bricks and mortar lines so I opted to use Scalescenes brick paper. Joins are hidden by fudges like corner pillars. I like the Scalescenes method of roofing using overlapping slate paper strips on a template. Tedious but a good effect I think. Interior is faced with SS white brick paper. Downspout hoppers are from ModelU. I used brass tube and wire and some plastic strip to complete. Next the Country Station (B 70-04): Much the same techniques as the shed. I did do an interior using, you guessed it, elements from SS kits. However, I don't do lights so the interior is just a murky impression. Let me just add that Lcut kits are a very valuable addition to the modellers toolbox. Well executed and great value. There will be a lot on my layout.

steve45 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 By using brickpaper you have overcome the big drawback with laser kits, the corners. Well done, great job. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted February 13, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 13, 2020 (edited) Yet to start any construction so no pics (yet), but I must also mention the way one can collect a selection of 'parts' to recreate, as near as possible, an actual building that would otherwise have to be scratch built, which is probably beyond my capability. Various wall sections, doors, windows and other bits will create the body shell of Seaton Junction Down Station Building, reference for which I have only one decent photo of one side and then some distant images of one end! The roof for this building was really large and overhung the Platform areas to create the cover normally provided by a Canopy. From viewing distance this will allow me to get away with creating the impression of the building rather than a totally accurate representation.
