I'm not going to single one out - they are all crackers.

Domain scratchbuild.it couldn't resist when I found it!

Sorry, I didn't know that Ol. All the best.

14 days combining - that just has to beat chasing cows, Ol.

Catching moles. I hate 'em.

You need most of that stuff nowadays, just to be farmer!

More lovely stuff. The wee Leyland is a clever idea.

The Acrobat and Haybob are a bit special - lovely stuff.

What brilliant stuff! The Leyland and loader is superb - having second thoughts about 1/16th models already when I see your collection.

Thanks all. It appears to me you are no slouch on the Scaledown front.

Fantastic stuff! I do like the Does and the 4000s, beauties.

I have started to photograph my models and have created a Gallery of them if anyone is interested. http://models.lethamshank.co.uk/

I do love to see someone get a bargain! I have a soft brush which looks like glass fibre, but becomes charged with static and lifts the dust off a model beautifully - even the delicate parts. Got it originally for PC keyboards.

590 46.2mm x 10.8mm 2640 52.3mm x 13.9mm I don't have an 80 to hand. Same as 40?

I have tried various things, the easiest being dill and fit a 0.5mm brass rod top and bottom of door frame and sandwich between roof and floor. I have tried drilling a 0.55mm hole through a 1.0mm plastic rod and using 0.5mm brass as the pin. Cement the plastic rod to the cab side and bend brass to suit door. This is very fragile and I don't know how long it will last.

Sorry David, I missed your thread. Did a search too. The DBP 390T is OK but I had to sort the fronts only on the 390H

I was handling some models today and as I tend to pick them up by the wheels, I noticed this on the Ros NHT7070. They DBP MF 390H had a very slight stickiness to the tyre edge too. Not trying to cause panic, but has anyone else noticed this?

Definitely snow. Winter of 2010 was, to me, ideal. A couple of feet of snow which lay for over a month, with temps below -5oC during the day. Proper 'continental' winter where a boiler suit was warm enough!. Today is slush under the fresh snow on saturated land - messy tomorrow.

After rain and gales yesterday, it's snowing big time again today - what a bloomin' country for weather.

Missed this. I do like that short nose as well. Very clever modelling.

Another very nice model, finished off beautifully.

I used to have a 4m and that looks pretty close to the mark. Cracker!

Maybe a modicum of heat with some lubrication - e.g. cooking oil - which could be gently removed with detergent and water after? Just a thought.

Looks well Sean. Not over the top, but weathered.

Very nice job. Did you cast the bonnet?
