Kernow commission ex LSWR Gate Stock Pull Push Sets

No injuries to report today, however... Time for some apple juice now but tomorrow... My patience will be tested fitting one (if not two) of these b@stards. I've lost the knack of bending lace pins with pliers, so I resorted to using a Bill Bedford handrail bending jig... net result perfectly bent lace pin and bu99ered BB jig (which I fortunately managed to fashion back into some sort of flatness). Cheers Dubya

I always have trouble fitting the roofs TBH, I've got a pair converted to the Maunsell pull-push sets using the Branchlines conversation kit. They're in a box in the loft somewhere - that's how pleased I am with them.

Lanakshire Models from Dave Franks of this parish. I have a similar design from Ragstone models too.

The one at Norton is well hard, it's been refurbed and still at the goods yard frote. I remember when it was covered in shite almost to the top.

Don't do it son, it's not worth it... But did I listen to Colonel Samuel "Sam" Trautman... no I did not!

They wouldn't let me near metal at school (I was put in cookery). Understandable really, as their insurance wouldn't have covered it.

Templot told me to do it!

The embarrassing thing is, I have one. It's when I'm polishing up the blades with fine Emery paper I stab myself. Will keep them in the jig from now on. Cheers Preferable to cutting off my ear .

I have but in Templot style (which is not very much at all). The next attempt will be based more on fact than fiction by looking at the prototype in detail... honest .
-
Not after all the gobbing off I've done about them, no, not really. Only joking they're fab and I'm only one blade away from disappointment on a major scale (see wot I done there) ! This means, as last week, it's ready to trim to size and fit, unfortunately that's a job for next week when I've healed sufficiently. H.H. Crippen
