I'll be watching along. Indeed. But it's giving me another opportunity to use up some of the excess parts I've got stashed away while being a source of good fun.

Ted Country: USA | Posts: 6204 Michael Hohn Fireman Posted - 09/29/2019 :  6:05:57 PM       Martin, I enjoy watching you make something out of bits and pieces like this. A couple of Mainline Models kits are lurking in my cupboard but for the life of me I can’t decide what to do with them. The sheetwood siding is so old and dry that every time I get them out I’m lucky if I don’t break something.

Fabulous job, and yes, I appreciate the "fun" involved in a way I could not have forty years ago. Keep going, and please keep the photos coming!
