Superb Paul! Really nice, just a big shame about the type of track going through it

Looking great Paul, and good to see that Gag is doing the vital design work!

Yes Gag has settled in nice and early, although he has reached the end of his top secret filming contract at the MGLR and is making his way back to the SHR today. Both Gag and the MGLR would like to announce that they are more than pleased with the footage taken.

Well, Now I have finished Uni for summer (

) I have been getting on with finishing this project.

The roof is more or less finished, just needs some touch ups and a coat of varnish, and the first set of doors have been hung.

Looks brill, where can I find me some of those hinges?

Pete: Gag is a lot stronger than he looks you know

obviously they were there to help hang the doors.

Zach: The hinges were bought off ebay, however they are off company something minatures

might have been jacksons minatures, not sure. Ill check on the paper, however they are just dolls house hinges, for a lager scale I presume. Not cheap, but they look the part

Nostalgic Miniatures?

MoelygestLR · Post by **MoelygestLR** » Fri May 21, 2010 12:58 pm

that sounds like the one! 99% sure. not sure if they will have any in but its worth a check

MoelygestLR · Post by **MoelygestLR** » Sun Jun 06, 2010 10:17 pm

well its about time for an update, and its a biggy.

All the doors are hung and the model is complete, and also in position on the layout.

Will post some pictures when I find my camera.

really pleased with the end result, just a shame a couple of the hinges have broken already. but that was done before it was finished.

Oh dear, you really need to shake off this thing for breaking buildings

I look forward to the pics, and also to seeing it in a few weeks
