Hi Mark:

Looks great. I may have to get one of those.

Kar l

[Slim Jerkins]

I got mine. It does have some nice little areas for adding a few lights.

[MAP]

Hi MAP:
I really like this kit. I will be folloing along.
Karl

I like it too Karl. In fact, I ordered one today. I a;ways wanted to light that one up.
-slim

Have you informed ACL of your plans yet?

Hey, I guess I resemble that! Where are my matches?

Tom

And all along, we all thought you HAD no match.

Okay, I wonder how many quotes of quotes we can get quotes of?

Now, not only do I have no match, I have no equal either!

Tom

We could try  and out do that Happy Birthday Ralph thing on the other forum.

Quote cascade:  Go for it!  Oh, and thanks for the color choice comment.

Cascade?
Electricity?
Bet all you Great Northern fans are happy now!

Slims is always trying to push the electronics to the next level - does anyone know where the server is for this forum? Will there be smoke?  Who's thread is getting hijacked for this experiment?  Just asking?

Mine!  Do I smell wires burning?

I think it really should be called a "nested" quote. But cascade is ok with me.
Isn't this Greg's thread? I wonder if he'll get back to it before the originally quoted thing shrinks down the the size of one pixel.


-slim

So Mark how is your build coming! I know a guy that can help you light it up with LED's.

Hey John.  The build went on hold for a bit.  I was in Florida for the past week.  My mom sold her house, so I flew down last week and with the help of the realtor, my cousin and a couple of hired hands we packed the boxes she had put together the past couple of weeks in a U-Haul.  We left Friday morning and I got home this morning at ~yawn~ 1:30.  Where's my coffee?  As for the lighting, I really need to start doing that.  I saw that Slim has a starter kit with soldering stuff/lights/wires/etc., so maybe at the expo I'll be looking him up.

Good sons have to put Mom first!

You should look Slim up at the EXPO or take a look at his web site.  I bought one of his starter sets a couple years ago and it was a great way to get into LED's.  Only bad part is I don't know what to do with all the light bulbs I've collected over the years.

I would also recommend Slim's clinic at the EXPO -

Just checking in.  Still no progress on the build (or my layout), but mom is settling in nicely. I will definitely look Slim up (and down 'cause he's kinda shifty looking) at the Expo for sure.  I've visited his website and was tempted to get the starter kit, but I want to talk to him first before jumping in.  I've heard he tosses tootsie rolls at you if you're mis-behaving in his clinic!  I'll have to mis-behave a lot!!

I was just looking at that Gleason Garage box sitting on the table in my garage/shop/hell-hole this morning when I was heading out the door. I'm really anxious to get started on it but I have some other projects that need tending to first. One is getting some info to Jimmy the D for doing a part for the light-up kit for "DePeaux" Station.

The Deeeeeluxe kit has pretty much everything you need to get started to solder up the tiny surface mount stuff. You want to be able to do that if you want to make your own goosenecky lights. The Deeeeeluxe a little light on white LEDs but I'll throw in some extras of those to forum pals.

Maybe a Tootsie Roll too.

Hey John.  The build went on hold for a bit.  I was in Florida for the past week.  My mom sold her house, so I flew down last week and with the help of the realtor, my cousin and a couple of hired hands we packed the boxes she had put together the past couple of weeks in a U-Haul.  We left Friday morning and I got home this morning at ~yawn~ 1:30.  Where's my coffee?  As for the lighting, I really need to start doing that.  I saw that Slim has a starter kit with soldering stuff/lights/wires/etc., so maybe at the expo I'll be looking him up.

Good sons have to put Mom first!

You should look Slim up at the EXPO or take a look at his web site.  I bought one of his starter sets a couple years ago and it was a great way to get into LED's.  Only bad part is I don't know what to do with all the light bulbs I've collected over the years.

I would also recommend Slim's clinic at the EXPO -

Just checking in.  Still no progress on the build (or my layout), but mom is settling in nicely. I will definitely look Slim up (and down 'cause he's kinda shifty looking) at the Expo for sure.  I've visited his website and was tempted to get the starter kit, but I want to talk to him first before jumping in.  I've heard he tosses tootsie rolls at you if you're mis-behaving in his clinic!  I'll have to mis-behave a lot!!

I was just looking at that Gleason Garage box sitting on the table in my garage/shop/hell-hole this morning when I was heading out the door. I'm really anxious to get started on it but I have some other projects that need tending to first. One is getting some info to Jimmy the D for doing a part for the light-up kit for "DePeaux" Station.

The Deeeeeluxe kit has pretty much everything you need to get started to solder up the tiny surface mount stuff. You want to be able to do that if you want to make your own goosenecky lights. The Deeeeeluxe a little light on white LEDs but I'll throw in some extras of those to forum pals.

Maybe a Tootsie Roll too.

Hey, this isn't my thread Slim, it's Marks'.


By the way.....good build so far Mark, I'll be following along!

You're right Greg. I must've gotten dizzy after looking at all the quotes...It's getting to be like looking in the mirrors at the barber shop if you know what I mean.

Who started this anyway?


Started what?

Ooops!  I hit the post before I said anything.  Ok, the "who", I believe, was Tom L. wondering how far this quote thing would go.  Slim, just close one eye and you'll be ok.

What a schizophrenic thread..........

Who is responsible for this? ? ? ? ?

Go to your room ! ! ! !

Bob,
I believe the blame goes to Slim.....something about how long to keep a "quote" going.  I think I better get some progress going on my build so that I can post some new material.

OK............

So let's keep this quote going.......... of Mark Twain / Sam Clemons.... 

Rumors of my demise are greatly exaggerated ! ! !

Or .....

William Butler Yeats........

Much of life is getting ready for stuff that will never happen.....
