Leakeyvale Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Here are the modules now laid out to the full 22 sq feet (and a bit). Lots of work to do still. Last picture is just for Mandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1/32 farmer Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 looking very nice there sue( leakey vale) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leakeyvale Posted August 19, 2007 Author Share Posted August 19, 2007 Thanks - it looks better without the lids and when the inserts are in place between the modules. That will be a job for next week AFTER I have installed the new furniture in my office. Always assuming it arrives next week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leakeyvale Posted August 20, 2007 Author Share Posted August 20, 2007 shucks Guys, you are making me blush. Mandy is correct the little Massey is a lovely model which came out of the same loft as the wreck of a Ford. Difference was it had never been played with. My favourite, however, is the little Ferguson TE20 with Mr Ferguson at the wheel. I love those little tractors and one drives through our village on sunday mornings in the company of a little Massey and sometimes one or two others.

Leakeyvale Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 A few more pics A couple of the ground floor of the museum (not usually seen clearly) The wiring loom is out of sight under the staircase. It is only visible in this picture because I had the camera down inside! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leakeyvale Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 The lighting inside is for 1:24 dolls house but it works a dream The Museum, Dairy and the rally field/arena. In case you're wondering the museum has a cut-away roof as it needs to fit inside a sloping topped cabinet when out on display. I shall now have to make a full roof for its new situation. Or perhaps not as you then cannot see the top floor exhibits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FB Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 The lighting inside is for 1:24 dolls house but it works a dream i use that lighting as well, on 2 sheds, its great!!! can i ask where you got the 'people' from?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leakeyvale Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 i use that lighting as well, on 2 sheds, its great!!! can i ask where you got the 'people' from?? Some are Preiser, some are Carerra spectator figures, and some MRRC which come unpainted. MRRC supplied the film crew, vendors and such. They are all slot car/railway Gauge 1 (54mm) and I usually buy mine through Pendle Slot Racing http://www.pendleslotracing.co.uk/ There are other places but Pendle have a good range (and trees) and are efficient.

Leakeyvale Posted August 26, 2007 Author Share Posted August 26, 2007 Those awful Siku tractors drivers can be somewhat improved. This one had a paint job, arms pulled and glued and I added the cat because he looked like he was holding something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leakeyvale Posted August 26, 2007 Author Share Posted August 26, 2007 My other half did a scalpel job on one; unbent his arms and legs, gave him a plastercast (difficult to straighten those legs) and a walking stick. He obviously fell off a combine. Looks better at a distance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leakeyvale Posted August 26, 2007 Author Share Posted August 26, 2007 I thought you told me that he tripped over the cat Well he may have! Either way he has a broken leg perhaps it is better to blame the cat than admit to falling off the combine. Certainly a young driver of my acquaintance broke his arm falling off his father's combine adn was quite reticent about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
