ess1uk Posted January 19, 2013 Author Share Posted January 19, 2013 Too cold in the garage recently to do anything, but have to go in there today to make some room for some furniture that is being shifted from the top floor so not only do I have to find room, I then have to dismantle the unit to get it down 2 flights of stairs and rebuild it in the garage. Wish me luck. The plus side is I will have a proper place for storage in the garage finally. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ess1uk Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 Way too cold in the garage today, but I did manage to get rid of the battered old sofa yesterday to the tip Just need to shift the surplus chest freezer and then there will be room for the cabinet to come down stairs so this afternoon I have been mixing rusty paint to have another go at a Lima YGH Seacow. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ess1uk Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Very nice,are you going to rust it up with Rust effects i want to find out how low the centre divide should be and cut it down as it is higher than the Hornby version and makes it hard to put a false load in. not sure if i want them too rusty 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shed Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 The bulkhead must need cutting down surely? Lima seem to always make them too high? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ess1uk Posted February 16, 2013 Author Share Posted February 16, 2013 Not much to report recently. No new crane, no helix, no change of TOC or period or area. I have managed to do a little bit more on the PGAs when I've not been driving all over the country for work. I have also made a small diorama with one of my Ratio concrete huts. Hopefully I will get to Trains4U over the weekend and spend my voucher I got for Xmas 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
