That's easy. Don't have guests, and make sure the agent brings families with young boys. You can get more trains with the extra money.

Now she's not here I don't have the money. How does that work?

She was/is cleaning out your wallet on the dressing table every night, is probably how? [smilebigeye]


Gav, fwiw if I did that "carpentry" I'd have the legs facing in different directions such are my woodworking skills.[biggrin]

Visitors? No probs Gav. Hole in wall would be ideal to serve breakfast to guests ah la 'Sushi Express' from the kitchen. 'ang on, you may need to call tenders for a new Spur Line up the hallway though.

Job done. Make sure you make the hole large enough or you might have noodles half way up the wall or if you have a Loading Gauge, you might need a larger one.

"Oh Goody" I hear you say?[biggrin]

Well that was a bust - everything for sale was HO or O scale. Oh well. Was some nice layouts there including about half of the Sunbury Clubs layout - will post some pics and videos later on. [emoji106]

Well back to the baseboard. Here’s a quick video showing my woodworking skills. Don’t hate me for this, like anyone, I use what I have - I don’t have much woodworking equipment so I make do.

Gromit, please DON’T tell your FIL I did this... 😉

That’s cheating!

That's not cheating - that's brilliant..!! [thumbsupbig]

You need to change your handle to.... MacGyver !

Another good day - got the first and second boards complete - feet installed and levelled. They are very rigid and I’m pretty happy. The last board top is made and the other timber cut and machined so will glue and screw that together in the morning. Should have them almost ready for track - just need to grab some extruded polystyrene from somewhere - which is proving to be a little harder than I thought - the insulation places I’ve called so far either don’t sell to the public or have a minimum quantity - about 10 times more than I need.

Wes approves so far. [emoji106]
