Good evening all.
Cool and wet as it is raining at the moment.
No modeling of any kind here today.
For dinner ham stake and a box of Red lobster cheddar garlic biscuits(was a special purchase at Aldi) the biscuit mix is about $2.00 and makes 10 to 12 biscuits depending on how big of a blob you make on the baking pan. They looked and tasted just like from the restaurant.
I have always wanted to scratch build a few steam locomotives, but there are a few places that make loco detail parts but not so much running gear and driver wheels and so on here in the USA. I have seen a few kits and parts in books and on the internet for 4mm OO scale and 7mm O scale in Britain. Also I found a book that is about scratch building locomotives in OO scale of British outline locomotives. I figure it is a starting place and the techniques should be able to carry over to bigger scales and North American trains. Will get a copy of book soon, but will not be building anything soon until I get some other projects completed.
