 Good Morning Everyone!Zoe, today´s my anniversary - I am with this forum now for 1 year! Did not come here in the first few weeks, though - was a little [8)] to join in. Today´s tab is on me, folks! Rob - those spray adhesives work well when putting foliage onto trees, but I hate those sticky fingers that usually come with it. When I first made a tree, all the green stuff was on my fingers and hardly anything on the branches of the tree. Make sure that you use the spray sparingly, otherwise you end up with blobs of glue on the tree.Bama - I´ ve noticed that you don´t come here as frequent as you used to - little Mikayla is keeping you busy, eh? How´s she doing? I hope all is well!Garry - atheists being a non-prophet group, now that´s a good one! [(-D] Ray - I am eager to see your track plan. I just can´t get enough of track plans - how many have I posted here? Can´t even count them any more ... [:D]Barry - yes, that layout just begs for a super-detailing job. After all, the scenic bit is only about 2´ 6" wide and all of the structure need to be kitbashed or scratchbuild - suits my non-existent budget! I have just made a rough budget calculation - to get the thing up and running I need about $ 175 to start with - some of that money I have already saved up, so there is only a little more time to pass until I can start the construction. That amount covers the lumber, the points, er - switches and the flex track. I will build my own switch controls - rod-and-knob type. The layout will be wired for DC at first, since I still have a power pack and a home-made throttle. Later on I plan to convert to DCC, providing that I find a real good bargain.<dl><dd>I've been working on the railroad </dd><dd>All the live-long day. </dd><dd>I've been working on the railroad </dd><dd>Just to pass the time away. </dd><dd> </dd><dd> </dd></dl> <dl><dd>Don't you hear the whistle blowing, </dd><dd>Rise up so early in the morn; </dd><dd>Don't you hear the captain shouting, </dd><dd>"Dinah, blow your horn!"</dd><dd> </dd></dl>[:-^][:-^]Have good day!
