      It's not hard, it just takes time. If you do get stuck just flag it up on hear.

      Buy one and start a thread. That way you can take advantage of all the advice and help on offer here and it could encourage someone else to have a go at chassis building. Might be wise to start on an 0-6-0 tank chassis first though.

      It really depends on your own confidence with a soldering iron, and being able to keep things square / parallel. If you're able to follow instructions, you shouldn't go wrong.

  10. A man stands at a juntion in his life in a cloud, to his right is the continuation of past and all the fobles of that event, to his left is the unknown future, a maze of possiblity and defeat, of day and night. The greatest question of all; What if?

  11. Life is never about reaching your goal, it is only the journey that is important. the fact that you have completed an endeavorer is nothing compared to what must have been learned on the journey to completion. the only significance of reaching a goal is that it means a new goal must now be set

      Arrogant hard places are more difficult to protect, sometimes a long run out is the only way.
