With that light in your garden you will be safe from ships grounding near your house.

If you can't get a satisfactory response please send me the dimensions and quantity and I will ask my friend, He has done items for me with no problem.

It would be wonderful to see another showing my 'mix and match' stock.

Hi Rik, I did get a mate to print the windows but as there are so many printers about at the moment I'm sure there will be someone out there who can help.

Absolutely beautiful work Rik, it is a stunning looking structure and well worth the wait.
The final detailing will make it 'real' but the windows will be a chore unless you can get them 3D printed.
I have used printed window frames and they look just fine, they are also an economical solution.

A locomotive with attitude if ever I saw one!

It would be wonderful to meet up again Rik, you would be most welcome. I have a special reason to get the railway looking at its best as soon as the weather improves and a perfect opportunity to record the line in action with all of the recent stock builds. The 3D figures are the best available IMHO...

My elder son is a plumber, perhaps that has something to do with it?

That's good news to hear your talent was appreciated and you were given exposure on local radio. How did that come about?

Nice work Jim, the roof has come up well.
It looks as though your pictures are in reverse order but I can see what you mean.

The loco is all-but finished with just a nameplate to add to the tank sides, a name has yet to be decided and I am on the hunt for something cheap and cheerful! I think there is a manufacturer who has a range of stock names available, but I can't find them..... any ideas please? ...... IMG_6169.JPG ...

Wonderful, beautiful looking locomotive, a real treat for the eye and so well finished.
