Nearly finished assembling an e27n. Here’s a few pictures of the soldered joints. These have taken a lot of filing though! I finally mustered up some patience with that thing. Did my nails too…

Haha I must say it’s probably quite misleading in many listings!

There is an option when you list an item on eBay now which is a small button that says ‘generate AI description’ that will write this

Hopefully I’ve managed to remove the twee from this shepherds hut! Built on a balsa frame, coffee stirrer floor , Britains lead wheels and clad with corrugated card

Now that looks brilliant, I like the dry looking rust , something I have never mastered. What is the varnish you used James? I have never tried it brushed on I just use a spray after to seal it. I’ve never managed salt chipping either despite multiple attempts. Looking marvellous -
I’m sure you will do a marvellous job James, what colour is it? Orange is easy to weather

Thank you James, i still need to develop a removable roof most of it won’t be seen

That is amazing , may be a straw rick should be my next mission! It always interests me how localised the thatching techniques are . You can almost work out the location on the type of thatch. I’m trying to replicate Wiltshire long straw which is a bit shaggier. I think most now are combed wheat reed

Thank you very much! , needs weathering down a little yet

Finally finished thatching a new cart shed after weeks, used a lot of hemp on this one, smoked most of it…

A scaledown Fordson standard N in the making. Nearly there with it just the brass steering rods and smaller parts. I made this up a few years ago when I was less experienced , and as a result it was rather bodged with many parts being glued upside down and bits of my finger stuck to it. A bit of paint stripper and I had a nearly new kit. I must say the attention to detail and accuracy in these kits as always is unlike any other model. You cannot even compare a UH , Marge etc alternative made from chinesium and assembled by underpaid workers The question now is colour…
