Mike,

I absolutely love the coloring of your stone walls.
Also, the jig for cutting of the corrugated sheets is a must to have for me,
so I will make one for myself. When I cut those sheets with an exacto knife, I always
seem to rip their edges, and won't now using a jig. Thanks for that idea.

I think you have a good plan there.

Whatever you do building that will be an impressive bridge.

I'm off to the basement in a bit to fire up the laser.  I found a problem in the current pre-release of Lightburn, so I need to do an 'experiment' and report back the results.  Then I'll putz with the little shed I laser cut, I think I'll remove the siding I started to install and cut something different.  It's an excuse to try cutting different materials...

Weather for the weekend looks breezy and wet, that Nor'Easter is apparently tracking westward rather than veering out to open seas...

So I sat down with Corel Draw and made up some decals, patch out rename for the reefer and renumber patches for the hoppers. I printed them out let the ink-jet ink dry then gave them two light coats of Testors Decal Sealer. I'll give them a try this evening after time for the sealer to set/dry

Good morning everyone,

Thanks for the coffee and breakfast Rick.  Not sure what to think about the shortening of races by 2-3 laps.  I think the only change it will make is that the races will be shorter.  The leaves are changing colour here too.

Curt, hope you get the sea walls straightened out.

Larry, enjoy the pizza dinner.

Dave, have fun figuring out the laser, I've been following your thread and learning.

Karl, have fun with the decals.

Current weather here is 14c (57f) and sunny.  Looks like the northeaster will be bypassing us as there is no rain in the forecast for the next few days.  No modeling this week but no work tomorrow so I'll be able to get some modeling in. 😊  Not sure what project I'll be working on so it should be interesting.

Have a great day everyone.
