Congratulations - hope you had a good trip home. I was intending to stop today and say hello but you seemed to have a good audience every time I passed.

"The Chop-O-Matic retailed for US$3.98 and sold over two million units."

Watched it earlier and really enjoyed it
Came away with a few things to try too!
Cheers. 45mins seems a long time to fill but I had to really be careful to pick what to cover. Gave me sleepless nights!

Hopefully not too shabby.
I didn’t allow enough clearance* between the main frames and the sliding sash, so they do require fitting, but assuming that doesn’t reduce the play value too much….
* probably not helped by printing the sashes horizontal and the main frames upright.
0.5mm glazing, or thinner. Spare sashes too. Use the razor saw to de-raft them!

And for them wot don't know Simon has 3d printed the windows for my Pencarrow LSWR signal box. Cracking job. It was something that I really wasn't looking forward to making... Double cracking job.

And returning from my televisual fame 
.... The 4mm side project will be travelling towards it's first show in little over 8 days. This building has been passing through the paint shop the last couple of nights...
Still a few areas to finish off- chimney, ridge tiles, corrugated roof included, but getting there.
A lovely little building put together by another in the group. I'm painting it so that we get a reasonable amount of consistency in finishing colour and tone.

Yes that's right. The headers are only darker because they are more burnt in the kiln, they are not a blue engineering brick. There's a few structures in the area where the brickie was an artist and arranged all the burnt headers in courses. You don't get that sort of attention to detail these days.
