Chippenham - The Work Bench
chuffinghell replied to Bluemonkey presents....'s topic in Layout topics
Thanks for the positive feedback (cheque is in the post) I always try and test fit as much as I can and drill out holes where required, I try to clean up/remove the supports as best as I can too but there are usually some I’ve missed (nothing a file or sand paper won’t fix) Fitting the wheel sets is the scary part because of the brittle nature of the resin. I recommend having a finger and thumb either side to stop the W irons moving out too far and breaking Also if the wheel sets are tight I find running a file over the points of the axles helps -

I used to use Halfrauds plastic primer but when the local store closed I switched to Hycote grey plastic primer from Amazon (cheaper and larger 400ml can) however I have been experimenting with Stynylrez Airbrush Primer -
I’m 48 so my age now matches my IQ 🤪

It’s taken me an hour to get my account closed, passed from one representative to another What part of “I wish to close my account” does eBay not understand? Hopefully it’s done now

I'm 'half' back after picking up the toys I threw out of my pram Still p*ssed off and still going to tell eBay to go forth and multiply but otherwise normality has been restored
