3D printed... in my kitchen!  Thanks to @rodsup9000 for the file.



A nice coat of primer will take care of those raster lines.  I've also wondered about, but not tried yet, dabbing a small bit of liquid resin, hitting it with a blow drier and letting it smooth out, then in for another round under the UV hood.  I bet it would work, but would likely take some practice, though might not be as practical as just smoothing with primer. 


Here's my latest!

Hmm, if we made a modern day Freedom Train, what new artifacts would take a ride?  Curiosity would be a shoo-in, I would bet.

There's a banner there, by golly, if only I had the time...

We were looking for AA batteries a couple days ago, and found a package of Phar-Mor 9-volt batteries in the kitchen drawer.  They didn't have a use-by date, so we tossed them...

I always thought Phar-Mor was a local thing because the owner lived close. He had a huge house being built and when he got busted the house sat half finished for years wide open on a dead end. Has an indoor pool. Someone bought and finished it:

Wow!  A photo of young Eddie!  They even spelled your surname correctly!  Cool!  :D

Do I smell a new banner?

Needs some weathering but the first "shorty" express boxcar is finished. I plan to also do one in orange/maroon/black.

Continued working on the Hanover Engine House.  Going above and beyond the kit and detailing the interior.  I got all the roof supports/pillars in place today.



What is that sitting inside ?   There's no steam on the CSX Hanover Sub ....
