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.
If at first you don't succeed, use a bigger hammer!

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.
