An New Hope?


Well, whats on my workbench at the moment?
I've got all the back issues of Model Railway Journal that my dad gave me for safe keeping while he is in Kosova.
I'm trying to clear space to do some railway modelling so the Lego is getting sorted, I've taken apart the 8000 Pit Droid, 8001 Battle Droid and 8002 Destroyer Droid and now I'm left with loads of random Technic parts to put away. They've been sitting built since I got them back at the turn of the century and all the rubber bands have perished.
The half built Sirkeci station has been pushed to the back while I ponder micro-striping for the Orient Express coaches and the cab of the Montreaux Oberland Bernois Railway Ge4/4 is still sitting as it was a year ago.

I've been prevaricating for too long, some S scale modelling has to be done! The first stage is to make a jig for cutting sleeper strip to scale 8'6" lengths and modifying the rivet punch I have to accomodate the wider sleepers of 1/64 scale.
