Thanks for the info! I am looking at a large (for me) styrene project and I am getting up courage to start it.

The answer to that is easy: I pick on you because you have a good sense of humor! -- Russ

  You've got to have a good sense of humour ( note proper spelling ! ) if you want to hang around here .

  The view from the corner is great . If I stand on tippy-toes I can just see into the girls changing room . So thanks for sending me here , Russ .

You must realize, Nick, that in the dark and sordid past of your island nation, nefarious individuals used to charge by the letter to paint signs, write letters, whatever. Hence the injection of superfluous letters in words such as "humour". Unbiased and learned American etymologists corrected the misspelling to "humor" to protect your countrymen from financial exploitation.

What corner are you in? I'll be over in a minute j... with a ladder!

Hah... very amusing Russ or should I say humourous. Many of these errant sign painters emigrated to Canada where the colourful practice of fleecing sign customers continues to this day... At least there are two countries in the world where correct English spelling and usage are still valued...

Hi Barney,

these certainly have character, can you fill in some details on the tracks, chains, wheels and handles ....... scratch-built or sources?

Thanks

[Ray Dunakin]

They're all great, but I really like that trencher.
