Just realised after reading your posts and researching Cain Howley that they are only just down the road from me (well 30 mins or so) We live near Swansea and need some buildings to get me going, might get in touch with them and see if I can call in. The buildings that you are working look really go...

Interesting construction techniques
A friend showed me this video, it is about making 4x4 models. The technique could easily by adapted in the making of stock or loco bodies.

Your super heater is touching the poker burner and causing this. Once the super heater warms the burner will settle but while it is cold it will just keep popping out. Best thing to do it get the super heater out and just kink it away from the poker. Thanks for that, next question now is - how do I...

chuffed2bits
Hi All

TOY TRAINS??!! :banghead: Miniature model engineering marvels if you please! preparing to be shot down!

You should use a sealer otherwise you will be spending a fortune on paint. There are many MDF sealers available from hardware stores some dry clear some dry white. The sealer will also help the finish. Many of the fibres get flattened when sanding, this gives it the feeling of being smooth. The seal...

I must say that this looks excellent. However........what is the cost of the material relative to say buying an injection moulded kit? I know its not all about cost but I did just wonder.
