We've got visitors coming over tomorrow so I was under strict instructions not to get too many toys out of my box ... its damp and cool so a small project was needed to occupy me so ... take one old Hornby 4 wheeled coach (this one was 50p some years ago as it had a chipped roof and no couplings) and remove the chassis (that'll make another project) I used a toilet roll inner as it was pre rolled and braced it with some offcuts of laser cut composite Covered it in Scalescenes paper Stuck a chimney on top and hey tinto sorted (and no mess) .. I also added a water tank on the end from odd bits.
That old Hornby grounded Victorian 4 wheeler coach looks just like the ones which used to exist in the woods around Rudyard Lake where families used them as Summer holiday homes in the 1950's. York Paul
I hear what you guys are saying with regards the " Like " button. We decided intentionally to disable it from the start as we thought that it could encourage people to simply " Like " a post rather than actually comment on the post ..... a bit like facebook does. However, I have no objection to trialling it and seeing how it goes. It could always be reversed again at a later date if it were to prove to be detrimental to how the forum was working. cheers toto
Hi Toto, It depends on how you look at it. I don't tend to comment unless I have something useful to add whereas I would tick like
Fair point. On that basis it probably works. Sometimes you do read a thread that is quite active but you struggle to post anything to actually " add value " to the thread. However a " like " shows your appreciation of the thread in absence of a worthwhile response / comment. Fair play. Toto
G`day Ian, That`s a little ripper of a conversion....... Good old bog roll.......has many uses. Gormo
