Good Morning All from NE Ohio
where the temp is 52 deg and heading to 68 with cloudy skies.

Looks like you boys were having fun on the chat room last night. I was doing an ad-ware scan so I couldn't be on.

This Firday is an OTTS meeting and Sunday is a Toy and Diecast car show. More places to spend money on.

Saw the photo of the chopper bike, we've had them at the store for the last two years, I think Schwin might be the manufacturer. Now if someone can come up with an aftermarket motor add on.

As I mentioned on CTT my E-8's came back from K-Line yesterday, loose motors. Its something I never thought to check with the weird noises. Since I didn't have a chance to test them yesterday guess I'll just have to force myself to run trains this afternoon.:thumb:

I dont mean to steer the subject bact to trains but as I am surrounded by a sea of hot asfault today and fairly bored, I thought I would piddle out side and make some log cars.

Below is one with the stakes glued in and drying and an other one drilled for stakes.

I made these out of old flats, spray painted flat black and the decks have been painted with craft paints to look like weathered wood.

This is so basic I am a little :eek:ops: to feature it as any grade school youngster would do as well .Certainly no major kit bashing job like tha PCV Climax.

I made the stakes from pocicle stix and the loads from tree limbs, a real hi tech solution, lol.:)

Both cars are drying and a waiting paint on the stakes. I will follow that with a coat of satin polly or dule Coat.

30 minutes less drying time killed.

I see posting my train work and pics was a wasste of web space, maybe you will like this instead.....:rolleyes:


A gorgeous young redhead goes into the doctor's office and says that her
body hurts wherever she touches it.

"Impossible!" says the doctor. "Show me."

The redhead takes her finger, pushes on her left arm and screams,
then she pushes her elbow and screams in even more agony. She pushes her
knee and screams; likewise, she pushes her ankle and screams. Everywhere she
touches makes her scream.

The doctor says, "You're not really a redhead, are you?"

"Well, no," she says. "I'm actually a blonde."

"I thought so," the doctor says.

"Your finger is broken."
