    Space, the final frontier..... He's dead, |Jim.

    Thunderbirds are go, er well, sort of....

    I (re)started my Thunderbirds project (previous attempt got destroyed) Here is TB1 - Hiro's design and quite a nice straight forward build.

    Stands?

    Hi guys, I will happily admit that I'm much more of a builder than designer (thank you all who contribute in this way!) But, why do very few model designs come with a stand? I usually cobble together something myself, but not everyone has the skill/time/etc. Just putting it out there ;)

    DIY ballast for 00 gauge?

    Hi guys, I'm starting to build up my little GWR 0-4-0 branch line but I need something to use as track ballast. Hornby have this great sponge one, but it's very hard to get hold of in South Africa, and I don't want to donate any organs to pay for it. :( So, please, any suggestions/techniques...

    Great (Paper) Western Coaches needed!

    I'm trying my hand now at building up a 00 gauge model railway based on my "vinatage" (1978) GWR 0-4-0 passenger set. Now, over the years I've managed to get my hands on more track and a few trucks, but not the big, full length coaches. (mine are the small 4 wheelers). With the track I have...
