The GnATTERbox

Kevin,

Extra pic tidied away. No charge.

Cheers,

Nice looking loco there Kevin.

Cheers,

But hold on, what kind (size) of dragon is that going to hatch? Or is it very, very, v e r y well cushioned?

Cheers,

Hi Chris,


I’m not quite sure if the ‘passengers’ are dinosaurs or dragons, but it seems to me that you next piece of rolling stock should be some sort of wagon lined with straw with a bunch of eggs nestling in it.

Cheers,

Chris,

It's a slippery slope from modelling what pretty much equates to 7 1/4" gauge in 1/12 scale to realising it gives a very practical but small narrow gauge with plenty of potential in real life.

See the link below my signature for more.

Cheers,

Chris,

As Peter says, card is great for modelling.

Your loco reminds me of some of the models in this album

I couldn’t spell Barry’s surname right (I was using Lorraine, not Loraine) but having spotted my error I have found https://www.nationalgardenrailwayshow.org.uk/layout/barry-loraines-kitchen-table-layout/ If you are a Facebook user join this group https://www.facebook.com/groups/16mmngm/ as there’s ...

Hi Chris, Re video: I know Barry (through the internet) whose layout that is. 16mm scale on 32mm track, all the track and points are hand made. Live steam and battery electric locos. Barry also works on a very tight budget. The main difference between your first design and the latest one is that in ...

Chris, I think that’s fine. I’m a big believer in keeping it simple. You can have masses of fun shuffling things from one siding to another to make up a train of wagons in just the order you want. Then, when it’s ready or you want to relax, out it goes for a few circuits. The next thing is to decide...

I didn't take these words as a joke. :evil: I also left the NGRM forum for this reason. I Alas, humour doesn't always travel well. Please don't give up on NGRM, there's lots in there. In the mean time, something very different from pizzas and also with a surprising amount of operating potential, ta...

Chris, Some of the most innovative and beautifully detailed creations have been the so called ‘pizza’ layouts. In once sense just a circle of track but in reality so much more. To hopefully make it easier here’s a selection of those that have ‘pizza’ in their title. http://gn15.info/forum/search.php...

The loco seems to ride those curves no problem.

My smart phone isn't that smart either. Mind you, I have a nasty suspicion it’s smarter than me.

Cheers,

Mark,

Hoping I’ve done the right thing I’ve changed all the thread and post titles to ‘Gnattering’. Ongoing any replies will automatically pull the correct title on through with them, as evidenced with this post.

Keep up the good work!

Cheers,

Hi Christian,

Welcome. Good to see you’re having fun.

‘Hello dear thing,’ said Ermintrude, twirling a daisy in her mouth. ‘Love the Rotaverser, very clever. Now, must go, busy, busy!’

Cheers,

Barry,

I guess Howard has yet to sort the website, that’s certainly his, with his name in the About section.

Cheers,

Hi Denny,

Good to see you’ve got back in to the Gnatterbox.

I was initially a bit flummoxed by your request, but I tried a search or two and wondered if this thread showed the sort of thing you are after:

viewtopic.php?t=9479

Cheers,

Hi William,

Just to be tidy and keep this area on topic I’ve moved your thread to here

viewforum.php?f=18

And locked this.

No disrespect, you’re new and such places are often weird until you get used to them

Cheers,

I’ve just spotted this bit of info from RCL Publishing on a narrow gauge modelling forum: ‘I'm currently working on a two volume set covering the work of Arthur Heywood and 15 inch gauge. The first volume The Duffield Bank and Dove Leys Railways is already started and we hope to publish late Summer....

Very smart!

I have to admire you steadily ploughing a fairly lonely furrow. Onwards!

Cheers,

Congratulations Andy. It’s good to know its story is far from ended.

Cheers,

Well, the loco does say ‘Southern’ and it really must be southern to be amongst those cacti!

Cheers,

Hi Chris,

The finished piece perfectly the sums up the name. Or is it the other way round? Brilliant fun.

Cheers,

‘.... apply them.’

‘If I may say so Holmes, if they won’t run on 6” curves you don’t need a diorama, you need a larger layout.’

Cheers,
