Getting on with 0n30

[shamus]

Hi Gang, just thought I would see what was going on and post a photo of what I have been doing for the last couple of months.
All structures and machinery are scratchbuilt, the only part I didn't make was the boiler which Jon Monon made for me out of brass tube. Lots more to do. This is the first time I haven't started on the scenery first. Got more live rolls to make plus a cutoff saw to complete the inside of the sawmill.
Cheers all.

My gosh , the master is at it again. Good to see you back, Paul. Great work on the layout ( but that is to be expected). Keep up the good work but mind the medical folks too

 

[Matthyro]

Excellent detail Shamus my friend. It must be a real delight working in this larger scale.

 

[jon-monon]

Fantastic work, friend! Boiler sure looks good with paint and the plumbing and gadgets in place. I'd forgotten all about it until you mentioned it. Did you replace the spark arrester? Good to see your fine craftsmanship coming to life once again!

 

[Drew1125]

Alright, Shamus!!
So good to hear from you again, & so great to see another model RR masterpiece coming together again!
Some fantastic craftsmanship, as always!

Shamus it is good to see you back on the Gauge and hope you are feeling better.
You get more done while sick than most of do when we are well!

Shamus first and foremost it's good to see you posting again! Hope you are feeling better AND listening to the docs! Beautiful work on the layout, can't wait to see more! Take care.

 

[Bill Stone]

Beautiful stuff, Shamus...... But, of course!
How are you enjoying working in 1/4 inch scale compared to HO?
I'm happy you're feeling well enough to be back at it.

Been more than just a little concerned, good to see you posting again! The saw mill looks great !
Take it slow and easy, maybe we'll deal with our anticipation by getting more of our own work done!
FYI "logging line addicts" the #28 issue of Timber Times, www.timbertimes.com, has some excellent information for people like me who are still new to logging.

Shamus ,nice to see that your nibble fingers are still at work and producing such high quality work. Where do you get most of your info? My scene revolves more around a lumber storage yard but probably could use some of the info.Thanks

Pete, I can't seem to get that link to work could you be missing a letter or something???

 

[camelot]

there is a small 'typo' error in the URL , replace the "," with a "."
and it works , here is the correct URL ....hopefully

http://www.timbertimes.com./

 

[sumpter250]

Sorry about that, I didn't include that as a link, rather as, just information.

I could park all my computer skills in the eye of a needle, and still have room to run a C&O H8 through it.

Shamus : Fantastic photos and your work is as good as it has ever been.I had forgotten how much i enjoyed your photos

Cheers

Great work Paul. You must be feeling better?? Sure hope so.

 

[shamus]

Hi All,
Thanks for the kind comments, yes I am feeling alot better now, at least better than the last couple of months. New breathing stuff and pills by the dozen. Can't complain really, had a hell of a good life, what with 30 + years in Show Business, then a Professional Photographer coupled with Model Railroading what else could you ask for. All self employed no body to tell me what to do, wonderful. Played Golf when I wanted Hehe.

Cheers , be back again later on.
Shamus

Hi, Paul,

Somehow I missed this thread over the weekend. Anyway, it's good to see you're getting back on your feet and are back to work on your new layout.

Very nice work on the enginehouse and the mill.

 

[N Gauger]

Hey Paul - Great stuff - as always! Glad to see you're felling batter!!

 

[jmarksbery]

Good to C U

Hope you continue to feel better friend, great job on new project. Once again welcome home.

 

[Johnson Bar]

Shamus, Excellent work the saw mill looks ready to fire it up !
What a inspiration to a newbie in On3O! Happy to see your return! Kudo's on your work!

 

[pcentral]

Hey Paul,
Great to hear you're feeling better. It makes me feel better, too! The layout is looking good. I have been busy bashing G gauge equipment for my garden RR which is mining and looging themed, so I look forward to your pics for info and inspiration. Thanks for what you have given us all and continued good health my friend
