Thanx guy's. I just finished up with my inspection and found 4 loose tie-downs under the house so I got under there and took care of it. This was very important do to our house sits pretty high off the ground and on a slope so a normal storm gives it a good rockin' but never faced something like this. Shaygetz, if you read this THANK YOU! You gave me a great idea on the Katrina thread "the trains are packed in the sea trunk. Ya'll wonder why I use that diorama a lot?" Although I do believe we won't get flooded do to being on top of a hill but however the fact of a tornado so I stopped and thought a minute...............
My old toy trunk for when I was little! It's a wood reinforced box that my granddad built for me a few months before I was born to store my toys in as I grew up. I still have it and it's in my closet in good condition. I'll just clean out the things I have stored in it then reinforce it with wood screws sense it was built with finishing nails. It has a hinged top and I can pack my trains in it with plenty of padding so if they get picked up and tossed around it should help save my trains. Perfect I'll do that in the morning. :thumb: I'll just drop it off the top of the house in the morning after I'm done to make sure it'll hold.
Na but I will water proof it to make sure nothing gets wet. Off the subject a bit but Lynn, you ever go to the Longview, Temple, and/or show's around Arlington, TX.?
We do have a show coming up over around Arlington somewhere which the guys call the Lockheed show. This will be my first trip to that one and is on the 18-19th I believe which is about 2 weeks or so from now. I'll have to get more info on it. If you've been to the Longview show then I'm sure you've heard of the Ark-La-Tex Modular Club.
Well that's all for now until tomorrow. Now I'm off to catch some :sleeping:
