Platelayers had our Symposium today. A series of talks on subjects, mostly related to model railways.
First speaker was introduced as an Emmy winner (rare in our club) who has a 15" gauge electric tramway in his back yard.
Talk on casting (from a commercial caster), then on testing aircraft (!) including use of the chicken cannon.
Weathering, Club history, then "The Credible Model". Interesting observation about what is modelled, and how the intention makes a difference to the quality that must be put in. Finish was member's reminiscing about their start in the hobby.
A few layouts and lots of sales tables. There was a free lunch.

In model railroading, there are between six and two hundred ways of performing a given task.
Most modellers can get two of them to work.
