Topics - Keep It Rusty

Morning all.

Some housekeeping of the forum today. We now have the following categories:

  • The Yard
  • The Mainline
  • The Roundhouse
  • Forum Contests
  • The Freight House
  • The Marketplace

Topics that were in now removed categories have been moved to one of the above. This keeps certain areas of the forum from mothballing.

Morning all.

In response to the requested features, I've added a new section for the forum called "The Roundhouse". This is the place for all those looking to discuss specific gauges - with the most popular added already. I have also taken the opportunity to tidy away some old boards that have grown obsolete. Importantly, none of these boards and their content have been deleted.

If there are any other scales or gauges you want adding here, just let me know and it'll be considered!

Enjoy your weekend!

Baggage Car - Daily Chat / What would you like to see?
January 05, 2025, 01:59:12 AM
I've been meaning to expand and grow the forum for a few months now and with a number of new members joining us in the past week, it seems like a fitting time to do so.

As has been suggested, a first stop to doing this would be to add topics that may not already exist. As this is very much community-led, let's discuss here any new topics or areas of the forum you'd like to see or think maybe missing.

Baggage Car - Daily Chat / Welcome new members!
January 04, 2025, 10:14:55 AM
We've had several new signups over the past few days and I expect many more given the news of the RR-Lines forum closing down soon.

Let's be sure to welcome all new members and spread the word that there is plenty of room at the Inn for all those seeking sanctuary.

I've not opened in a while, so I figure it's high time!

Is anyone in the market for an SRMW Lamson and Goodnow? Yours for just $275 (and $40 Int'l Shipping), if so!

For those in Florida, I hope everyone continues to stay safe.

Morning all.

I have been somewhat absent lately - apologies - but it's been all work, work, work for the past number of weeks.

I've been at the workbench as time permits, and it continues to be the best way to unwind after a long day!

Setting up a trampoline for the kids today.

Working on the next kit in my KEEP IT SIMPLE line up before I turn to my next big one for the rest of the year.

Oh, and I suppose I should also do some work...

New member signed up, too. Welcome to s.e.charles!

Baggage Car - Daily Chat / Floquil Color Samples
May 13, 2024, 08:47:16 AM
Hey everybody --

I am working with a well-known paint supplier to bring back some of our long-lost favorite paint colors from Floquil.

We are looking to recreate the following colors in acrylic and I need some paint chips/samples on some white paper. A well exposed/white-balanced photograph of them all would be all that is needed...

Driftwood
Roof Brown
Earth
Grimy Black
Depot Buff
Box Car Red
Coach Green

If any of you have these colors on your shelves still and can do this, maybe we can resurrect these colors in harmless acrylic form!

Thanks in advance.

What's everyone's agenda for this sunny Sunday? (At least that's the weather here)

Morning all.

The weekend is here.

I am working towards the release of two of my smaller, "affordable but never compromising" kits -- which will be available to order next week from my website (found below, if interested). These are a single piece 3D-print, which only needs the walls painting and the roof adding. Simple yet effective! Both of these dioramas took just two-three evenings to complete. The structure itself was a single evening.

Hope everyone has a good day!

Can't quite believe it is March already...

I am working on two small kits for my "Keep It Simple" lineup. They should be available fairly soon.

I hope you all have a good day/weekend.

To combat spam user signups (we've had a few recently), I have switched to admin approval when registering. Until we reach significant signup traffic, this will be the most effective way of moderating who's in or who's out.

Anyway, between my day job and some other recent business, I continue to make way on my upcoming kit offerings. I'm very excited to share them all soon.

I hope you all have a good day.

Happy New Year everyone!

Modeling, health, happiness, and beyond!

... of 2023!

I hope you have all had a great year and will have a prosperous 2024.

Being in the UK and most of you in the US, I'll be in New Year before you so I'll be here waiting for you all. So here's to it everyone.

Happy New Year!

I hope you all had a great Christmas! Are you as stuffed as a bird?

Hobby-wise, my wife bought me some new paints and for myself, I have invested in some new 3D printers! Lots to do.

The New Year is just around the corner. The shelf of shame cries louder.
