Moose, John, My hat is off the anyone actively modeling. The only posts recently were asking about geep colors and one on a passenger car and Doug readying his...
I will echo Clark's comments. Anyone can find time and space. It may not be your dream layout/models, but you can do something. I know a fellow in the Kansas...
I need to make a mis spelling correction. Calling my Wife a wide is not a good idea! D and F are next to each other on the keyboard...at least they are on...

I have got the best color on my Geeps using Scalecoat 1 SP Scarlet, thinned 60-40 paint/ thinner, and as always use matching brands for best results. I will...
I had a heel spur removed. He had to partially cut the Achilles tendon, hence the long recovery time. It's a good pre-retirement exercise. I'm ready to start...
Would be nice. I'm disabled with 11 major surgeries in the last 8 years, there was 1 year I had 3 and 1 when I made the whole year without incident. Don't rush...

Well, in my past modeling/custom painting days, a half gallon jar of brake fluid could handle most anything (except an Atlas Chessie System GP40) But brake...
I think the tree huggers have caused the brake fluid formula to change...As they used to say on "South Park" "Those bastards" I used to use the stuff, but the...
Hey Clark, I agree--there's a lot of guys out there making excuses. I was stationed at a remote base in Korea for a year in 1999-2000, and I had every company...
John: I have been toying with the idea of building a switching layout in my new home in O scale. Obviously, O scale reduces the scope of what one can do, but...
Brake fluid works too. The best is Scalecoat Washaway paint remover. 20 minutes a shell is pretty well done. Mike ... From: John Markl To: mstl@yahoogroups.com...
Maybe we should call this the M&STL and Physical Ailments Group. Seems like we're talking as much about our physical woes as about our beloved railroad. ...
