A great man cave Dwayne a lovely place to hide away.

The only trouble I have with tidying up the heap of junk I laughingly call my workbench, is that afterwards I can never find things.

That sounds so familiar.

I know that one. When I was gainfully employed in the motor trade I eventually got the measure of keeping a tidy tool box. I had a huge Snap On roll cab, 40 drawers, 6ft long and 5ft high. What I did was put everything away neatly and in its proper place but left a large drawer empty. Everything that was used regularly went in this one draw, wheel brace, ratchet screwdriver, 10, 13, 17, 19mm spanners and sockets, hammer, multimeter and pliers. Never a problem with keeping things tidy after that.
I need to be as rigours in the shed.

A shipment of 10 Hartland Locomotive Works ‘Make & Take Flat Car Kits’ arrived at the NT today.

To run as is or to become......?

Six will become short side gons for the Figment Mine. The other four likely will become boxcars. Couldn't pass on the price of $9.38USD each.

Another thread which I seem to have missed out on over Christmas. Interesting developments, Dwayne. Like the moving of the siding - makes a lot of sense. Be interested to see what happens with the Hartland wagons. I've used several as the basis for bashes - they lend themselves readily to modification.

Great Stuff Wayne - and a real bargain too!

I'm looking forward to seeing the build develop.
