Now that the cream of the crop are safely in the pub or tucking into last weeks leftover pizza's, I can now get back to planning the rebuild of the nasty corner,​

​

​

as my landlord has fenced the feild corner off it has given my a bit more to work with, so the new framework was laid out today till the rain came back, ​

​

​

I have also looked at double tracking the main line this winter, most of what is laid can be changed easily, and some​

of the curves eased a bit​

​

I am looking for any ideas for run around loops, not using any sidings this time,
​

Welcome back Pete

 

[Richie]

Good to have the Sunday night pic's back Pete
Great work with the track supports

 

[MR SPOCK]

I got the messy corner strimmed down and the size of the area is huge, so I am planning a bit more storage area and maybe a doulbe deck area for the branch line yard,​

​

​

when the days are warmer will get it bolted together,​

I also tyook an unexpected break away from home, and on the way back went for a visit to Blackpool, of course I picked a day when the electric had run out haha, no trams either!!​

Good to see your metal staging going down ,Nice long run there Pete

 

[MR SPOCK]

Lovely rainy day sop a few little jobsdone,​

​

I got a small tender for one of my ongoing projects from Mr Funandtrains, so I decided to put some decent wheels in the thing,the original Aristo are useless as they snap and go out of gauge,
​

​

I used a set of sanval wheels that where in a boxcar , the boxcar did not need the weight as much as the tender.​

​

I cut the wiring away from the axle boxes so I can put new pickups on later , I also cut back the brake blocks which always derail these aristo models, to get the roller working again for the sound unit I just wrapped tape around the axle, it took longer to write it and post it than to do it,​

I also tidied my bench up can you tell?​

​

 

[Madman]

When I do that, tidy my bench that is, it lasts about as long as a sneeze.

 

[stevedenver]

im glad to know you tidied-that is so much more orderly than my own.../

 

[Richie]

I take it Pete you have cleared your work bench and put it all on this bench

 

[MR SPOCK]
