    Thanks David, I was beginning to suspect that.

    Hello, I bought an O gauge 02 shunter a few weeks ago and would like to convert it to DCC with sound. There are plenty of chip choices available but there doesn't appear to be any 02 sounds for them. Could I get away with 03/04 sounds? The 02 has different running gear to the 03/04 so would not sound authentic but would provide a solution. Also, can anyone recommend a chip. I've heard good things about LokSound and Zimo. Thanks in advance. Steve

    I've just found out my neighbour is a DCC expert

      He's going to find himself very popular.

      Exactly! He's made himself available... A lecturer and exhibitor, no less!

    And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like: "I think I'll try cleaning the wheels with white vinegar"

      Does this mean the loco has had its chips?

      Haha! Jim, you should be on stage. The mistake I made was not washing it off afterwards so it left a (stinky) residue. It's all pucker now, thank Cod...

    Beautiful! Definitely the best one I've seen to date. Let me know if you get tired of it!

    Gosh, I miss the archive! So many interesting threads I keep finding references to but they're locked up in their little coffins...

    Really very nice Pete. This update reminds me so much of when I was an architectural design student! Absolutely love those polystyrene trees! Fascinated by the last sentence; I'll show you mine if you show me yours?...

    I think the next RMW challenge should be Ikea-related. My vote goes to putting slip covers back on soda beds after you've washed them!

      Is a soda bed like a water bed?

    Great progress! I love these things, as you can tell from my avatar pic. I may get myself one of these so watching with interest.

    Really nice work, looks fantastic. I'm building 'John Owen' the first engine from the same branch, but mine's a little smaller... http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/53634-fox-walker-0-6-0st-2mm-scale/page__view__findpost__p__667994

    Blimey! Had an argument with an N Gauger?
  12. The Nth Degree
    This looks a lovely project. Why not enter it into the scratchbuilding competition?
  13. The Nth Degree
    Best of luck with the cattle wagon, hope it comes out well. I'm after a couple of these for my layout so if the results are good I'll put in a reservation.

    Why did this sell for so much for a tatty old 3 railer? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/220995416733?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_500wt_1156

    Amazing attention to detail! Love the inetrior.
  16. The Nth Degree
    Thanks for the info Jazz, and for the heads-up on that min space layout - it's going to be a cracker! If I do go this route I would very much appreciate your help and advice, thanks very much for the offer. Also, I'm very interested in your Fox Walker build - I'm currently planning one in 2mm scale, see the scratchbuild competition. Is it a Mercian kit?
  17. The Nth Degree
    Thanks for the vote of confidence Martyn. Included in this bundle are several unstarted and part-finished wagons, vans and other rolling stock, mostly from the two suppliers you mention. The price is formidable though!
  18. The Nth Degree
    Very nice. I'm currently mulling over an offer of several built, part-built and unstarted kits. I really like the idea of this scale, having started in N and now 2mm, but the prices and time from kit to finished product are both heart-stoppingly high, and that's not taking into account the room you need to store and run them. I suppose a small plank-type layout would suffice at home and then to join a club to stretch their legs once a month would be the answer. If I were to take this offer up, and found out that I'm an utter plonker at building, do you accept commissions?
  19. The Nth Degree
    Jazz, I've spent about 2 days of spare time going through this excellent thread. I'm absolutely amazed at your prolific model building! It sounds like most of these are builds are for customers (I'd love to be one of those!) but what have you built for yourself - do you have a pic of your own personal collection or layout? All stunning work and I'll continue to watch with great interest.

    How much is that doggy in the window?
  21. The Nth Degree
    That is stunning!

    I've just got over the worst illness ever. I don't know how I survived – that bug could have put down a bear!

      Yeah, joining the 2mm Scale Association has that effect on most people ;)

      Haha! Amen

      By the way, snotty tissues are an excellent modelling medium!

    This looks lovely, well done.

    On the subject of cattle wagons, any news of Stuart Bailey's W2 entering production at all?
  25. The Nth Degree

    Completely forgot I made this. It is awful, but I like it...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VF0ni7p7us&context=C3ee1869ADOEgsToPDskLt6MsNDIlL-_-gY5zbDsxb
