Projects for father in law
Re: Projects for father in law
Hi all,
Thank you for all the nice comments.
Next I have been building a Brunel Models waiting shelter. It's been painted into LMS colours even though it's a GWR design. It will be varnished.
Apparently I have two more of the single sided version on the way.
Regards
Richard Cooke

That looks good, wouldn't want to be cutting the fascia out by hand!!

Hi Grant,
It came precut in plastic, but did need a bit of sandpaper to all of the grooves.
I reckon you could sell metres of the fascia on its own!

Hi all,
Last for a while (until I get some more things to build).
Tenmille signal kit, with a distant knocked up from spares.
Hopefully I can get a bit done on my Corris No. 3 now.

Re: Projects for father in law
Hi all,
A couple of telephone boxes.
These are card kits from a company called Toys we once had. They are for scalextrix which just so happens to be 1/32 scale, FIL is now on the hunt for suitable period scalextrix cars.

Re: Projects for father in law
Hi All,
Latest project has taken a while.
A Liverpool Overhead Railway set
Its a Judith Edge OO kit in brass.
Its been the most fiddly and complicated kit I've built, the parts are tiny and a real test of my soldering skills. I've vowed to never build anything in OO again!
Parts for next project have already arrived and are on a completely different scale, requiring a 12" x 30" construction board!

Re: Projects for father in law
Wow, they do look very intricate, which suggests:
- You have immense patience
- You are highly skilled
- You have asbestos fingers
- You deserve a medal!
Re: Projects for father in law
Very nice!
Although, didn't the "Dockers' Umbrella" have a really frequent service? So much so that it was the first non-Underground user of colour light signals in the UK, I believe... So you're going to have to make lots more...
