Re: Making a point frog.

That’s a really helpful video, thank you for sharing it. I might just have to have a go myself now.
Can I ask how you determine the angles for the jig please??
Thanks

Re: Accucraft Ragleth - fitting RC

Could you describe how you have done this?
I have an Edrig that has RC on the regulator and I’d like to add a servo to the reverser if possible.
Many thanks

Re: What to do with a Newquida loco

I don’t know if you’ve already tried it but I’ve had success with Butanone when gluing ABS type plastics.

Re: TVT - Canardly the Tram

That’s a rather pretty thing in an industrial sort of way. Well done for sticking at it, if it had been me it would have been in bits in the scrap bin by now :D

Re: Coronavirus projects

Thanks Tony Just in the process of separating all the pieces from the sheet. Taking ages. It's quite heavy gauge brass and the only way I can get through all the little tabs is with a slitting disk.

Re: Does anyone here have a 'Plotter'

I would have a look at a Silhouette Cameo cutter, A4 sized and can do quite a bit more than just cutting vinyl.
Not on stock on Amazon but I'm sure Google will be your friend

I've just read this thread through from the start and would like to say thank you for sharing your railway with us. You have a fantastic collection of locos and I'm not even slightly envious :lol:

To be fair I've only just joined recently using direct debit and found it pretty easy, haven't tried to just do a renewal though.
