What happened at your workbench today?

Rocket sticks collected this morning on the bench awaiting clean up of cardboard. That time if the year again, all come in handy for sundry jobs in wagon building and building corner strengthening.image.jpg
 
Much to @pugwash disappointment, the 2 central longitudinal beams have been bolted in place on the chassis of the railcar, by the way, the washing machine now has a replacement water heater, it's now done a wash, it's in it's element:D

Plasticard surface scribed and weathered to represent flagstone surface. Unfortunately the lines do not show up that well on the white surface. Now where's my paint pot again.

True.... I've had one of the furry little b*st*rds run up my leg (fortunately OUTSIDE the trousers!) in the local park.... maybe it though I had some nuts in my pocket! :eek::eek::eek:

I remember one of our members of staff rather upset, having walked to our area office in White City housing estate, and he'd been attacked by a squirrel - jumped on his head and drew blood o_Oo_Oo_O
 
I’m in the early stages of my next project,

I’m considering
trimming 2 Lgb post vans,
removing the balcony and end doors,
Remove a section of bodywork
Mount on bogies

The result should be a bogie parcel vehicle inspired by the many cct/guvs/ by vans that BR had in varying shades of brown
The red line is the approximate cut line

I was "mugged" by one in St James Park a few years back. Ran down its tree, nipped over to me, then ran up my trouser leg and rifled through every pocket in my jacket, shirt and trousers quite systematically. Nipped off smartish empty handed. I think the little fella was quite an expert at this sort or attempted larceny.
