Really nice photos Shamus, it's looking great! Keep up the good work. Got a real nice write-up in the current issue of Timber Times, Issue 29, page 30. They went a little bit further than the other magazines and did a few paragraphs on the stumps. Walt

Shamus, I'm interested in where you got those little workers. I've been digging around through a lot of websites trying to come up with good sources and those are excelent. How about sharing your "loggers" source with us? Walt

When the wife and I got married, many years ago, her uncles made the comment when they heard that I was into model railroading.."He's picked a rich man's hobby!" Well ya! I feel rich for doing it, certainly not finacially, but it's very rewarding no matter what aspect of it you particularly...

Dick, I was referring to the "databases". I teach people how to get the crap out of the database as all they do is feed it and get it constipated. Keeps me employed and at 60 I'm in more demand than I've ever been. Getting the crap out of the people is harder, even if you beat it out of...

Most don't ask me what my hobbies are after I tell them what my occupation is. See, I'm a proctologist of databases! I teach people how to get the crap out of them!:p :p

Jon, we're around. One of the refugees from The Railroad-Line Forum started a new forum and a good number of those "individuals" flocked over there. Their choice. The RR-L is back up but the rest of us post at both RR-L and The Gauge! I don't bother with the new one cause I feel they are move...

Actually, from the look on it's face, I'm wondering if it's using it as a litter box? From comments I've heard about Bush it could be!:eek: :D :eek: :D

Michael, Besides various paints I use the addition of chalks. I use earthtone chalks, you can buy a set at a local art store. Scrape the chalk sticks with a exacto knife to form a powder. Dip a small brush into isopropil alcohol and then the chalk. Start with the lightest color first. Dab the...

Casey, That's what's there now, that kind of grey square thing under the stool. Problem is it has a bad habit of "walking" and it travels far in a short time. I think this might have to do with the type of carpeting and the grain of the fibers as I have another one on my computer desk with teeth...

Tyson, understand, the living room is mine so to speak as is the dining room. There is just the two of us and two cats. We have a large family room at the back of the house that's my wife's (grin) so I have my rooms. Only problem is the white carpeting! I've thought about covering it with a...

Oh Tyson, it works great as I've already finished a building that goes with my Old Rose Mine kit. As always, if I was starting again I'd probably make a number of changes but, "Hind site is always best after you have finished a project!":eek: :D :p Walt

Just finished (this past weekend) my new model railroad workstation. I modified a pre-built, or I should say pre-cut, wardrobe cabinet I bought at Home Depot. It turned out really nice and I've already finished one project. Before this I had to share space on my computer desk which didn't...

But he'll try to use the umbrella as a boat to go over Niagra Falls!:eek: :eek: :D :p

This is bad, no doubt about it BUT! Worse goes on every day right off our own shores. What I'm talking about is the Cruise industry. See they don't bring their trash back with them. Now think about it, how many people sail on just one of those ships? How much garbarge and trash is...

Morning Brakie, and anyone else who might show up.:p Don't rightly know what it's like here in downtown Cincinnati as I got in here about 6 am and it was plenty dark. I'll go back out at 5:30 pm and it'll still be dark.... well from my point of view. basically I have four days a week I never...

Justin, from what I've seen of films on the subject it's a pit. The cars are pulled along an embankment and the slag is dumped over the side into a pit. Now what happens from there is only a guess but I'd figure after it cools somewhat it might either be shifted by bulldozers away from the...

I just drove into Cincinnati from Indianapolis this afternoon and I didn't see anything of any damage along the way. Nothing like I saw this past Spring up in Michigan along I94 between Battle Creek and Kalamazoo. In the Galesburg area both sides of the road had close to 60% of the trees down...

Thanks fellas, I have another website, www.aimtrainers.com that I could put the Rusty Stumps pages on. It's just redirecting www.rustystumps.com to those pages that gets tricky. Once we decied if we are selling/moving then I can get DSL or Cable DSL and bring the site back up...

Thanks Paul!:D I took the website down because of costs. Just wasn't selling enough of the stumps to justify it right now. No work either so things have started getting a little tight. If things change I may try and get DSL or Cable DLS and host the site here at home. Time will tell...
