GearDrivenSteam,

About 4 or so years ago same happened to me so I dropped out and took a rest. Now I just don't post any photos or other tips/tricks on different forums. There is one I have liked thou.

But really your own your own when posting anything! You need to be thick skinned!!!!! I learned it hard way.

My beautiful wife was kind enough to measure and cut some windows out of some scrap plastic. I think they turned out great.

It is enough that Jesus died and that he died for me.

I'm sharing this with the My Large Scale Forum as well, but all of you here have been much more appreciative. What's up with those guys over there?

Its been very slow in general "over thare" ...but it always slows down during the summer.

No replies to a couple of my topics as well...guess its the weather. Everyone is outside, too busy running or building to pay too much attention to the web.

Funny thing is that here and LSC have seen alot more activity lately.

Give it time, things will pick up there.

   Have fun with your trains

Yes, there have been a few replies over there since I posted that comment here. Maybe they are lurking. LOL

More progress. I added air brake pressure and return hoses and operating coupler lift bars.

Robert, thats come along very nicely!

I was going to suggest a couple additional detailing ideas, but it really doesnt need them.

Be warned! Kitbashing is a like those Lays potato chips commercials, you can't eat just one....Laugh [(-D]
