Good morning all,
Work has been busy and will continue to be well into Febuary.
I found a dead mole on the drive way in front of the garage. One of the stray cats must of left it there. There is a big patch of yard that looks like the mole or moles have ruined. Grubs are bad enough. Maybe I will not chase away the cats as much now.
I have been 3D printing O gauge fixed couplers for my trains lately, it has been mostly a success except RMT Beeps and Marx fixed couplers cause a problem still. They work well so far with Lionel, MTH, Atlas O, K-line and RMT freight cars but not RMT Locos
It only took 5 revisions to get to this point. Track testing was done with a old marx log dump car that was missing the dump mechinism. I cut of one of the Marx couplers(the funny looking tilt couplers)and mounted my knuckle coupler to it.
