Went into the shed to start removing the baseboard and discovered a wasp that got in yesterday had started to build a nest on the roof :S
Hmmm get rid of it NOW before it gets bigger! I had one that was starting to make a nest IN MY OWN DORM at school 2 weeks ago would have been interesting!

I did this morning, it was only one still building a nest so I put a bucket of boiling water underneath it and knocked it off the ceiling, and then ran. VERY fastDolwyddelanLightRail wrote:musket the dog wrote:Unexpected turn on events today...

Latest project I have been running a while. I've been making some custom lettering for some of my repainted stock. Some of it's far from perfect as I can't print white ink, so I have to print a background.
First was Terrier. I printed of a set of wasp stripes, more as an experiment, but I think they look ok

Good evening all
Not updated for a while, so here are a few of my more recent projects.
First of all is rebuilding my snowplough. The original used to simply attach to the front of a loco, till there was an accident involving a tree, and it didn't fit and awful lot after that.
So a total rebuild was in order, this time to be wagon mounted. This is about half way through, the basic frame has been built onto the wagon.

Not yet complete but a work in progress
Also my line being a preserved line with no turning facilities it made no sense having a loco incapable of hauling a train tender first. So my LGB shorty had to suitably modified. I have removed the cow catcher and added a shunter's platform. Only now missing a buffer, unless anybody can think of anything else?
Made simply from some spare wood, coffee stirrers and some old Mecanno
