new bling for Mamods

Post by Roy Wood » Wed Oct 24, 2012 10:01 pm

Good evening all
In a blaze of self-publicity I'd like to draw attention to the fact that I have just obtained a couple of new castings to suit Mamods etc. Firstly, I have a new dummy cab rear coal door casting and secondly a new design of mutli-height coupling. Both of these feature rather neat and attractive hex-headed bolt detail rather than rivet 'pimples'. The attached photo shows them, unpainted, on a Janet cab rear. Details on my website www.roywoodmodels.co.uk
Kind regards
Roy Wood

THe last few multi height couplers I have ordered from another supplier had another issue.  

Their backsides were shaped like this "(" and did not meet the buffer beams flat, and a bunch of filing was needed.

Both items look nice, thanks for posting Roy!

Hi Garrett
Thanks for the kind comments. I know what you mean about not being flat. That's why I use the best caster I know - he knows what he's doing and they really are flat on the back.
regards
Roy

Roy,

Those are looking very good and at attractive prices.

I need to consolidate my projects to work out what spares & enhancements I will need.

Having seen these (and purchasing one) at Exeter, they are brilliant detailing wise, the picture doesn't actually the rear doors justice!
