Thanks all. Alan Jones also thinks there would be minimal variation between the timber wagons. Maybe an inch or two. If you have access to the dimensions, Pete, that would be a great help. I don’t

Paul, Have you read David Smith's article in Review 46? Drawings by Dave Ashley, curated by Stuart Baker. David H ________________________________ Sent: 29 January 2022 15:47 To: [email protected]

Hi Paul, For my 2p, if we're worried about 2.5mm in track gauge then we should sort out 3mm differences in the waggons :-) I am in waggontracks & the WWF (wooden? waggon federation) - we were

The correct answer is probably to sell all the iron wagons. Then draw up artwork for a new etch with scale width and get 30 odd etched. I don’t actually know the size variability within the wooden

And if I may drop another brick - as far as the 7mm society and O14 - what would RCL's advice be? CP

Let me drop a brick into the mill pond ... Why do you model in O14? I think if you can be sure of why you model O14 rather than 0-16.5 you ought to be able to answer your conundrum. I shall now step

Surely the answer is to design the kit in such a way that it can easily be either cut down to scale width or built up to the “bloated” width. Given that anyone working in ~14mm gauge is going to

Thanks Paul, I agree that the iron wagons probably wouldn’t work as a 3d print. I can’t remember the detail of the 7mm NGA etches but I wonder if a 3d printed chassis could be combined with the

Hi Robin. The overwide route is looking to be the preferred option. These will eventually run on the extended Dinas project, so will run in mixed takes of ‘up empties’ as a tail load and a

An interesting conundrum! I guess what you decide to do will depend on how you intend to use the wagons. If they are to run with your existing (presumably over-wide) stock then I would extend the

I have recently been in discussions to look at having some 3D printed wooden FR slate waggons made. ?I cannot do 3D drawing/printing, so am looking forward to this little project. ?It does throw up

That’s a useful method. Thanks. I am going to paint the chassis before looking at the pickups, so I can do a final fix on the wheels and motor etc first. Cheers Paul

Paul - thanks for the NGRM link, I’ll follow with interest! You mentioned your Slaters Lyn kit was missing the side tank weights. These as supplied in the L&B Models original kit weighed 54g each;

Not quite hot there yet. I will report back in a day or two. If you’re on NGRM then I’m reporting there. https://ngrm-online.com/index.php?/forums/topic/28738-slaters-lyn/page/2/ cheers Paul

Hi - I too would be interested in any suggestions…..when I spoke with David White at Slaters about the forthcoming re-release of Lyn a couple of years ago, he said one of the reasons for the delay

Has anyone worked out a satisfactory arrangement for the electrical pickups on a Slaters “Lyn”? The spidery bar frames and cross-members mean that the usual pcb busbar between the wheels isn’t

Happy New Year everybody. I just wanted to say I recently received a sample of Paul's RTP O14 track and jolly good it is too. There will be a product review in the next issue of the REVIEW. John
