Geezer's Lounge (Rev 1) - Volume 6

[PRR Modeler]

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening and breakfast Rick. Great photos. Is it only NP's that don't allow dogs on the trails?

Started out the day with a walk at 76F and pleasantly breezy. Today after the cold front comes through it will drop temps into 60's and 80's. We've had 100+ days of 90+ temps so far.

Today after chores I need to program a code for gs in the front door since he will be here for a long time. I have 4 generations living in our house.

On the modeling front I need to straighten the resin sea walls. I'll use a blow dryer for heat on the recommendation of Brett at SW.

Jerry and Dave I hope the storm turns out to be minor.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Good Morning,

Rick thanks for the coffee and breakfast. Glad you and Star are able to find some hiking areas. Looks like the deer has both eyes on you.

Curt that's a lot of days of 90+; better you than me. Hope the seawall straightening goes well.

Hope those of you in the path of the Nor'easter don't have any problems. The weather wizards are saying the Nor'easter could go as far west as Rochester NY, which is 1.5 hours west of us, but they're saying it's not likely.

What are you up to today?

It's a clear 38 with a high of 70. Haven't seen our Hummingbirds for the past couple of days; looks like they've headed south. We'll keep the feeder up for another week or so in case any "travelers" stop. Taking Ellie for a hair apt. this afternoon then picking up a pizza for dinner afterwards. Not sure about any bench time.

Have a great and safe day!! Be well.

It looks like the Nor'Easter will wash out Saturday's neighborhood Scotch Club meeting.      They're predicting over 2" of rain, but so far this year we've gotten about 1/4 of the predicted rainfall...  We can certainly use the moisture, and this should be early enough that it helps the fall leaves, rather than washing them off the trees.

In a bit, I'll go down and look at my laser project.  I have a couple things to run on the laser to help Lightburn debug a problem, and I'm not sure I'll like the look of my thick siding.  I might strip that off the building and try again.

Sun and Fall temps here going to be the "rinse and repeat" story for the next several days here. 

I worked with Corel Draw yesterday and made up a decal sheet and printed it out, will make logos and marks for a DATA only reefer car I have, and a set of numbers to renumber 7 or 8 Athearn B&O hoppers I got cheap, all the same car number.  Will give them a few more hours for the sealer to cure/dry before trying to use them.  They did turn out nice looking.  I've made them before for different projects with mixed results, from Wow to bleh..

Terry, et all.  Not looking forward to the snow machine swap out.  The stuff gets heavier every year.  Mid Oct is usual target on that task. 

TomO, you operate on a much different level than I can even contemplate.  Having had a two man crew work a couple different times over the years

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.

I've been following Dave's laser thread with great interest...now Karl starts talking about decal printing...if someone starts a thread on resin 3d printing my modeling budget will be will never recover!!!
