Yes they are the heads off the posts, The lights are highway lights for 00 scale train sets, The heads look alright on the buildings but the posts are a bit small, But what the hell eh.

JC Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Only just! The posts are ok size wise, you can get different sizes of pointed rounds, 1.8m being the most common. you only normally need them longer than that for soft ground or for keeping in deere or goats.

Must make some for my yard Well no they were not dowels as such, They are kabab sticks, I made them 6cm long but I would try some at 5cm the lads think they are a bit long, (so do I ) and a pencel sharpener.

richie Posted November 7, 2005 Author Share Posted November 7, 2005 Got a new delivery for the harvest today a green marston trailer,It was sent from the uk on Thursday and I recived it today(monday) in Australia, good going or what? Ia'm still waiting two months on for a silage trailer and mower from a J D dealer here in Australia.It cost 11:00 pounds just for the marston trailer so Ia'm just going have to wait to save money.
