Jaz Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) 8000 replies..... LOL.......... The world's 14 "eight-thousanders" -- mountains taller than 8,000 meters (26,247 feet) -- are all located in Asia. On one hand, they really beautify a horizon, but on the other they present a fierce, at times fatal, challenge to mountain climbers. Beauty can, indeed, be deadly. Here's the "baby" of the bunch, Shishapangma in Tibet, peaking at 8,027 meters (26,335 feet). http://news.discovery.com/adventure/eight-thousander-pictures.htm well we are NOT the 15th because even at 1:76 scale we can't compete LOL.

Jaz Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) rmweb3449spalding2014 and being O gauge this bridge was a feat of engineering in its own right massive at 3 or 4 feet easily......my arms were held as high as foible to get this picture..... and herein lies my confusion....anyone able to clarify would be marvellous....... I think this picture put with the last layout should be here.... rmweb3447spalding2014 and if you look at the title in the background and notice the large bridge to the left in this picture.... rmweb3448spalding2014 I think the table goes all the way around!!!!!!!

RMweb Premium southern42 Posted November 18, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 18, 2014 Congratulations on 8000 posts. Just goes to show what an interesting thread this is. Thanks for the Spalding pics. There's some cracking green stuff there which I've got my eye on for areas still to do on Camel Quay. Can I rise to the challenge? It looks like you enjoyed the show. Looking forward to seeing some gained inspiration on AV. Polly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwealleans Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 the combine driver is going to have to do a lot of shunting at the end of the field. Normally a field is combined by firstly taking 3 - 4 cuts around the outside. This creates space in which to turn at the ends for when field is cut from top to bottom - thus removing the risk of running over the crop. Actually, he has created a headland (the technical term for what you describe) as you'll see in the third picture - three swaths running parallel to the fence. At least no-one suggested the combine is the wrong way round. The whole scene was created by a farmer who did know what he was modelling. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least no-one suggested the combine is the wrong way round. The whole scene was created by a farmer who did know what he was modelling. Hi, thanks for the update, @Jc is also from a farming family. Which is good for us, as you say as he help with pointers regards the modelling. :sungum:we have combine harvesters that occasionally come in either side of us for cutting.. Do I assume your an operator from Thurston? If so, as I offered to Hoovernut for The Creekcrone and Rattleswick - who I had a good chat with at the show, if you wish you may use one of my pictures for your avatar if you wish, as I notice you have not added one to date. I can crop one if required. Hoovernut chose my favourite picture of their layout. I was chatting to one of their other operators first...as I love water features. so nice to speak to people who are knowledgeable about the layout Edited November 18, 2014 by Jaz 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwealleans Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Well that's very kind, thank you. I've never felt the need for an avatar, to be honest.I am usually one of the Thurston team, but this time I was there with Marske, which belongs to a friend of mine. You've caught some of my stock in the background of one shot, which is always nice to see. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
