Re: [O-14] 0-14 Standards
No, currently building (slowly) in On30. But my prototype is 2'
gauge, and I am still uncommitted to 1/4" and 16.5mm gauge. I shall be
investigating the feasibility of converting mechs to 14mm gauge,

Re: [O-14] 0-14 Standards
Frank, All,
Question time sounds like a great idea. We have 50 members, and I know for
sure that several don't model in O-14. It would be nice to know who does.

Now that John has raised the issue and Roy has kindly added a PDF file
of 14mm track and wheel standards, how many of us are working to these,
and if not what variations are in use? I ask because we

Kit seeker
Amongst all these unmade kits, can anyone help me to find a 7mm DJB BR Class
4 Tank kit to purchase please?
I have a Gibson Lynton & Barnstaple "LEW" 7mm NG unmade kit to exchange or

Re: More on 14mm axles
I meant Guy Williams, but it equally applies to both.
I'll wait and see if any others want some before getting any made. I
assume as yours is still in the box you're not quite ready for them
yet.

Re attic/loft -- if you had put insulation without a vapor barrier that did not contact the underside of the roof structure you would have upped the R value. It would have been really good if you used

Thanks for the explanation of the O14 standards. I am the 'guilty'

My K1 kit was for 14mm, and therefore I assume I have the correct

That should not have happened as the McParlins have axle extensions

I think you have said that the K1 is Romford wheels. Now assuming that

Further to the recent issues regarding 14mm axles I am finding that

to match the gauge and maintain the correct relationship

Not yet a 7mmNGA member because I'm a poor uni student and can't afford to be!

If it has relevance to 7mm scale NG modelling then it will be
