Good Morning All: I started a Suydam "Standard Station" yesterday afternoon. I don't know if I'll get it done as after about two hours of working on it, I lost interest. I need three more stations so that means that I'll have to do something. It took me better then 30 years to build that campbell trestle, I sure hope I get this station done faster then that. Is the Giraffe that we're talking about, Jeffery from Toys "R" Us? Ed: Glad to see you've come back. Fresh orange juice used to be a favorite of mine but now I can't even smell it as it makes the blood sugar go askew. JP: I like to do the painting and staining before construction as it's easier to keep the paint separeted. That's what I was doing on the station and got bored. You do have to be a little carefull as you don't want a lot of paint or stain were the glue is going to go. I don't know what kind of applicator, for the plastic glue, that you are using but I have several A-West needlepoint applicator bottles with the 4" needle. They are realy good at getting the glue in the joints of the buildings. You don't have to keep going back to the solvent bottle for a "brush full" of solvent. Some people I know use a paint brush but I've never tried that. Fergie: I feel sorry about you having to go back to work. POOR BABY I'm assuming that I'll get a package from Loy's today? Did you find the other decoder on your "trash dive"? SNoah: How is the Silver Streak car comming along? Well I've got to get some clothes folded before work, so ya'll have a blessed day and remember SANTA FE ALL THE WAY Bob
