  1. Ah, you aren’t aware of rule #1 of married finances then? There’s her money and our money, never any “ his” money Tim T
  2. I’m not aware that anyone does 3d printed GWR autotrailer buffers? If you do know of a source could you post details, please. TIA Tim T
  3. Pray tell how on earth did you manage that little trick? I’ve been married just over thirty years and wouldn’t dare attempt such a thing Tim T
  4. I didn’t think the Duck had anything left to moult Tim T
  5. Well folks, thanks to a nice refund from my energy supplier that SWMBO doesn’t know about (yet!), I’ve taken the plunge and ordered a body and a pair of 9’ fishbelly bogies from Shapeways. It will be one of the Llantrisant ones as shown in Lewis. Photos when they arrive. Tim T
  6. Johnster, the Stafford Road 3d fisshbelly bogies are advertised a 9’ on Shapeways. Which ones are you looking at? I’m about to order a set to go under my A7 autotrailer Tim T
  7. Thanks for your reply. Now all I have to do is save my pennies, £80+ just for the body shell! Tim T
  8. Given the demise of Blacksmith Models into the black hole of Coopercraft is this now the only way to to get a diagram A7 autotrailer, other than scratchbuilding? Has anyone purchased one? What is/was it like? TIA Tim T
  9. Now not only are Argyle in the relegation zone but also without a manager............ Commiserations Tim T
  10. Just returned home from visiting this show from Wiltshire. Well worth the long journey. Well done to all involved, especially the ladies dishing up the bacon rolls! Tim T
  11. It could be worse, you could be following a team(*) that seems to be making a belated dash towards relegation out of the League the way they are playing currently. Tim T * = STFC
  12. Good grief! I’d like to see Dave Franks cast a set of those! What are they fitted to? Tim T
  13. As a non-driving pensioner living in Calne life would be very difficult without the 55! Exhibition visits would be impossible Tim T
  14. So all that stuff that was delivered on Tuesday is now on the walls??? Do you hire yourself out as a shed liner by any chance? Tim T
  15. Of course, once the loco is finished you will have to build something for it to haul........... Tim T
  16. Fortunately I sold all my 7mm stuff last year TimT
  17. Johnster, around here (Wiltshire not South Wales) the wall mounted boxes appear in purpose-built brick pillars. Perhaps you could adopt that practse? Tim T
  18. Presumably Scarlets supporters? Tim T, a Yorkshireman who is married to a wife born in Wiltshire who has a Welsh father, we can’t wait to get our house sold and move to Wales
  19. Another question if I may, what glue do you intend to use to fix your glazing to the body? Tim T
  20. Have you looked at the 3d printing forum in the Skills and Knowledge section? One of the posters on there might be able to help? I personally got Taff Vale Railway 4mm boiler fittings and loco buffers commissioned as 3d prints through Modelu. HTH, Tim T
  21. Johnster, I’ve bought them! Now all I have to do is justify two of them in the Cynon Valley! Rule 1.......... Tim T
  22. Johnster, you don’t have to buy a complete auto trailer just to get a replacement bell! Peters Spares is where I got mine for my A32/33/44 conversion. Tim T
  23. Use of the same motor in multiple models saves costs and development time - seemples Tim T (edited to correct iPad typo)
