    What it looks like today.

    This has taken 2 years to get to this stage.

    Its been a couple of months since I last posted, but things have been moving on.
    Here's the list of projects on the go;

    1. OctoHelix - Complete (Post to be updated)
    2. Design and manufacture of my own servo brackets (see Alu Rail Tech)
    3. Working on the MegaPoints servo controllers and ancilliaries.
    4. Fitting servos to Fiddle yard (18 in all)
    5. Arduino controlled turntable.
    6. Decoder installation.
    7. Hidden rail section, fronted by a canal & lock.

    The number one project as instructed by swmbo was the tidying up of the back garage, and shed as all the cupboards removed from the walls in building the railway room were in there.
    This has made a dramatic change in the railway room.
    I can now find stuff, all in different cupboards and easy to find.
    Just have to ensure I put things back at the end of the day ;)

    "A place for everything, and everything in it's place". Must get around to tidying my railway loft, but at least, despite my under layout area resembling a skip, I can at least (mostly) find everything! I start out with good intentions of keeping things tidy, but when a project (and I usually have several on the go at the same time) rears it's head, tidiness takes a back seat. Really like the 'Octohelix' though, that's giving me idea's for yet another project.:avatar:

    Keith.

    Nice one Ian

    However having difficulty in this tidy room concept, is it some form of disorder, and is it treatable under the NHS.
