    The “Give Tony Grief” Thread

    I just thought of something…rubber hose to go over the switch machines. Easy to replace if needed and doesn’t require drilling.🤔🤔

    Maybe someone is doing construction somewhere close. See if you can get some scrap plywood. The less they load in a dumpster is less they have to pay at the dump. I’ve got some scraps hidden away at work for just that reason. 😈😈

    The “Give Tony Grief” Thread

    This is exactly why a layout is never completed. There’s always something to add, refresh or tinker around with. Impatiently awaiting to start mine. Already told SWMBO that she can do whatever she wants, no questions asked, once I start mine. Guess I’ll have to start walking the dog she wants. 😁😁

    Wanted to pass along that my grandson and daughter in law were discharged from the hospital. They’re home…currently living with us until they find their own place. My son is ecstatic when his son lays on his chest. Brings back lots of memories of when he came home. Thank you for everyone who...

    Arch Foot Bridge

    I’m lucky enough to live high enough to be out of the flood zone. Waiting for the river to go down so the boys and I can go magnet fishing again.

    Tony is living the Boy Scout Motto…Be Prepared! It’s nice to reach over and grab a spare whatever you’re working on than waiting for it to arrive. Usually when I have to wait for something to come in, it’s a moment killer for me.

    Very true Tony. It’s coming along quickly and it’s a lot better than I would do.😁😁

    Arch Foot Bridge

    Once you blend it in wherever you plan on putting it, you’ll never notice the difference. Just my opinion but a jetty wouldn’t have the curve in it. Normally they just angle straight down to the dock.

    Will pass the word tomorrow. They’re still at the hospital.

    Hopefully you’ll consider wider boards. The last arched foot bridge I crossed had rough cut 2x8 as footboards. In my travels, I saw one bridge with random sized boards. Use what you have to get the job done.

    Are you going to do actual boards for the walkway or a sheet scribed to represent individual boards?

    Thank you all. The best part of being a grandparent is you get to watch your children deal with what they put you through growing up. And feeding them sugary snacks just before sending them home…😂😂😂

    Currently sitting in the waiting area awaiting the birth of a grandson. It’s the hurry up and wait game. But you all know that Grandpa is going to be instilling trains…one way or another into his life. Maybe then we can have another generation to keep the hobby going. Will update when I can.

    11 inches tall. Etched brass. You would have to rig up the support cables and add a light on top. $33

    There’s a listing on eBay for a assembled radio tower. Already painted. It looks to be high enough but short enough to prevent accidental Godzilla knockdowns.
