Is that the PECO Bullhead version ?

Probably not far off TBH but I can't wait* for the fair to middling radius versions to come out.

Edit:. Yes it bluddy is, see below.

Decided to go for the A5 shorty (9' switch thingy).

 

post-1328-0-63098600-1507833094_thumb.jpg

 

Temperlott chopped up and spray mounted to a slab of MDF (it's not the pro way to go, I understand, but it's all I have in stock) with masking tape around the edges.

 

Double-sided tape on top (this IS EM gauge tape... it must be, I got it from EMGS Stores, so there!).

 

During all this diddling about I was supposed to be making onion gravy for dinner... turns out it's now caramelized onion gravy, so win, win!

 

PS: Got me chopper out but that's for the morning, too tyred to be piddling about with me tiny strip tonight, even if it is shiny...

That'll be a Peco "finescale / not P4" medium radius point up there then, won't it.

 

Bu99er!

Almost Finescale, however you have not adapted it yet and done a 'Graham of Grantham' to it to make the crossing the correct width. Advice on how to destroy this pointy thing is available on SOSJ. 

Arsh

P.S. has that Arseteroid destroyed the Trumpet of the USA yet?

Ah... but I made the crossing wider to facilitate a bigger gap (P4 talk).

 

SOSJ, I thought that was a (care in the) community group?

 

No, I understand that hemorrhoid is still stealing oxygen from us regular folks.

 

I've also just realised that Carr's Surface Conditioner tastes and behaves in the same format as Lidl's gin, only more expensive and in a plastic container.

 

Hoorah!

Would that be OO-Somerset Flatbottom then ?

Bonjour Dubbers.

 

Nice to see that there will be a Sheep presence. The Somerset Flatbottom is a fine breed, strong thighs and a cheeky smile.

 

Splendid.

 

 

Rub.

Why thank you sir, although I cannot take all the credit myself. Some must go to my stockman, BigGoatieMan of Devon, for it was he who introduced the Somerset Flat into the flock.

 

Have fun with your blasting this weekend.

Thank you, it's my homemade PlayStation®. When one is working on top of such a fine tablecloth, yet has the dexterity of a one year old under sedation, one has to mitigate against spillage. Also if I put stuff back where it came from, I'm more likely to remember where I put it. It's never worked to date but it's the thought that counts.

I don't think any models will getting weathered with it but the porcelain better watch out in the coming days!

 

I'm sure your skills will be put to the test but maybe you should have a bit of backup.....
