My condolences on your loss, Giles. A reliable working crane on OO9, eh? That will be interesting to see.

Sorry for your loss Giles.

As Adam says, modelling can be very therapeutic - while my mum received palliative care and after she died modelling really helped.

Giles I am thinking of you at this sad time.

What are your plans for motorised propulsion?

Mike

 

[Giles]

Aha... a 6mm 50rpm gearmotor. There will be a slip ring in the centre of the bearing to allow continuous 360 rotation, and we now have coupling rods. Battery and receiver will be in the upperworks

Sorry to hear of your loss Giles, and as others have said, glad the (extremely fine) modelling is proving therapeutic.
