    G'day Ruston92,

    Welcome aboard from sunny Sydney. After settling in, introduce yourself and show off what you have been up to with your modelling. I take it you know Pete (jakesdad 13) from the post above, so I'm guessing you are well credentialed with modelling. Looking forward to what you have to offer.

    Cheers, Gary.

    Many thanks for such a warm welcome everyone. I tend to model in 3 1/2" gauge & 5" gauge. I am currently designing a range of products in 3 1/2" gauge. Image below is just a taster for what is to come :)

    Go on Paul you know you want too:avatar::avatar::avatar:

    It's to late for me, my issue now is I can't lift my ones any more. So they just sit at my parents place looking pretty. :faint: however there's something quite therapeutic about driving your own steam train albeit a miniature one from a Mamod O to a 5" gauge

    Can't wait for Ruston to show us more of his work though.:thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:

    A friend at work once said "my problem is my wife doesn't understand me", I told him "my problem is my wife does understand me !", and getting an O gauge loco (and a couple of wagons) was probably pushing my luck to the extreme :giggle:

    Looking forward to these, but probably from afar :avatar:

    I saw some 31/2" gauge locos at an exhibition last year, and even had the pleasure of driving one, they were battery powered and radio controlled, there was such a feeling of mass with them I felt like I was really driving a locomotive, great fun.

    Cheers, Pete.
