Here's hoping the new year brings peace and good health to you and yours, Keith. -
Absolutely beautiful work, Mark. A very nice post to start of the new year.
-
Happy New Year to you and yours, Eberhard.

I don't bother counting down anymore as I'm fast asleep long before midnight.

MC, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.

Thank you, Keith I do wish we could select two emojis in response to a post.

I can see doing the fiddle part of bending and rolling and getting sub assemblies made and ready to attach to the main assembly but hitting the exact mark necessary for alignment with parts that small is a bit mind boggling. Chris has to have either a very steady hand or a very good rest.

Thank you, Rick and a Happy New Year to you.

John, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.

Thank you, Steve. Thank you, Eric. The one hole stanchions were spares from the Tennessee, they're this close to feeling right. Thank you, Paul. Berry certainly had the face for imagining him being Engel. That gave me a hearty laugh, Tom.

Thank you to everyone for the likes and for your kind comments. I've got stair railings 2.0 done. I made 1.0 from wood and they looked more fence than rail. 2.0 is a bit elaborate for Billy but looking at the press photo the railings are one of the few items that don't look like they came off the bottom of the junk pile. Admittedly 2.0 is much more elaborate than what's pictured but it looks ten times better that 1.0. There very well could be a 3.0, we'll see. I'm holding auditions for someone to portray A. O. Engel. In normal viewing the railings don't poke you in the eye like the photos do. Thank you guys every so much for your support and for being part of the journey. Keith

I have the RP miter cutter and I'm quite pleased with it. https://umm-usa.com/onlinestore/tools-supplies-cutting-cutr-mitre-cutter-p-11167.html?sort=2a&search_in_description=0&keywords=rp cutter -

Thank you very much, John. The paddle wheels will be the same diameter as a US penny, 0.70" and 0.30" wide. I've built the wheels in my mind countless times, we're getting close to seeing how it goes for real.

One should never use tap water, Steve. Lightly moisten the Q-Tip in your mouth and then gently swab. Ole fashioned spit is the best cleaner but it's slow going. One can only work up so much spit in a sitting.
-
That's absolutely amazing, Steve.
-
I did, Keith and I hope your's was as equally grand. Thank you, Eric. When you and Tom made the observation of a center stairway I fretted about the 'how to' of it, I'm glad that part of Billy's build is in the rearview mirror.
-
That's really neat, Eric.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Dave.

Thank you very much, Geordie. Happy Holidays.

Thank you, Ken. I tried matching the hues in the black and white photo to colors I have in my acrylic craft paint stash. If the colors match The Pennsylvania Railroad color scheme is purely an accident. Thank you and Happy Holidays.
