Zoe, how about a root beer float - A&W if you got any? <br /> <br />Guys, I'll try to respond to each of you, but I might not have seen your message [to me] so please don't interpret it as a 'snub' if your name isn't in the list... <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by egmurphy</i> <br />[#welcome] Welcome to the Coffee Shop Ken L! Yes, I did recognize your name from other posts, and I had previously stopped in to see your website. Very nice work, btw. Congrats on acquiring real estate for your layout. I think we have another regular in the Coffee Shop who will be happy to have another ore dock modeler hanging out here, eh Paul? <br />[/quote] <br />Thanks Ed, I'm happy to have found this nice li'l cafe! BTW, it appears that Paul's ore dock is on the loading end, whereas mine is at the un-loading (steel mill) end --- sets the stage for a different 'flavor' of point-to-point operation...[:D] <br /> <br />Duke: <br />I see your location is SE Michigan. I grew up in Farmington (I think it's now called "Farmington Hills"?), lived there until I was 13. Fantastic state, love those tractor-trailer rigs with 13+ axles...and the 75mph speed limits![}:)] <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by der5997</i> <br />KenLarsen [#welcome] First from MD, I think. If you’ve lurked long enough, you probably know how to get Zoe’s attention (and Chloe’s too Isee!) [(-D] Glad to have you aboard. As to inspiration, I’ve been really encouraged by the pics of other people’s layouts here too [tup] <br />[/quote] <br />Hi John, I see you are a member of the well-represented Nova Scotia contingent. I'll have to try to get jrcbal and some other Marylander's to join me here![:)] <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by JimRCGMO</i> <br />[#welcome], Ken! Maybe if you wear an old long-sleeve shirt and gloves when you install the insulation you can minimize the damage. I know that stuff does itch (and my job I did wasn’t as big as that!). But it’ll give you a lot of usable room, just remind yourself of that. <br /> <br />And ouch! (double ouch!) on your plumbing problem. Forget telling our kids to go after being a doctor or lawyer - have ‘em go for the big bucks and get into plumbing! <br />[/quote] <br />Jim, that's a good point about plumbing - at least I don't think they can outsource THAT line of work to China or India![:D] Two additional fiberglass safety items on my list: dust mask and swimmer's goggles. <br />-------------------------- <br />Guys, I really need to catch some [zzz] since I have to get up at 5:00am (it's now midnight). C-ya!
