Re: VIRTUAL SCALEFORUM & SCALEFOUR NORTH

Re: VIRTUAL SCALEFORUM & SCALEFOUR NORTH
A hearty slap on the backs of all who made it happen. Well done, indeed!
An afternoon in the company of Jeremy Suter was enough to cajole me into revisiting my HL Drewery chassis. Gearbox built, hornblocks fitted, laughable rods constructed. Great fun!
Thank you Scalefour Society,

Re: VIRTUAL SCALEFORUM & SCALEFOUR NORTH
I have booked a day off from work, just for Saturday. Time off is rare, ATM. I had to show the old hotel reservations to prove that we would have been off for an even longer period! Thank you very much to everybody who is going to all this almighty effort, to make this the best day of my life this y...

Re: Resistance Soldering
Thank you, gents, for your help. I'll have another go when I've put my bike back together. Thankfully it doesn't require any soldering!

first attempt.
I think the rear steps ( on the left) would look super in a scrapheap.

Re: Resistance Soldering
I thought I was an outside cheeky bet for the RSU GP championship this afternoon. Come 6pm I have knocked Picasso into a cocked hat.
Oh well, tomorrow's another day.
HLKits, how many 03/04 chassis kits in stock?

Re: 2019 S4 North
A wonderful day oop north for the mrs and I. Wonderful layouts both complete and in progress. I would like to thank a few people if I may?

Re: Resistance Soldering
Maybe I should have said 'I quite look forward to DB's demo', as opposed to going loop de loo.
Hindsight is useful, I guess.
Apologies.

Re: Colin Parks, Scalefour member
A bloke I never had the pleasure to meet, much like others. Obviously supremely talented. What struck me about him, was his positivity, his bounding joy. As a self confessed misery, I found his countenance a veritable wonder. An almost childlike interest in others' activities-allied with acute knowl...

A triumph, Jon! Well done. The iphone 6 speaker is a super little fella- chop off the small rectangle and fill the resultant hole, and it'll fit in no problem.

Thanks to all who made me so very welcome, lovely to meet you! An exciting journey, utilising all the directional sense of a stunned hedgehog in the middle of the M6.
