Weekend Update 9/20/20

@Philip H - Here's the shopping list:
the pipes are evergreen 0.030" rod https://evergreenscalemodels.com/collections/14-polystyrene-rod

The pipefittings came from Rusty Stumps https://www.rustystumps.com/pipefittings.php
90 Degrees - part # p41 - for 1/32" rod
T's - part # p42 - for 1/32" rod
Globe Valves - part # p47 - for 1/32" rod

(or if you want to go a little bigger, get the 0.040 rod and the pipefittings for 3/64")
 
The centrifugal pumps came from Shapeways (style #2 size #1) https://www.shapeways.com/product/XLFPCTSWF/centrifugal-pump-2-size-1-6pc?productConfiguration=55920498&etId=195738045&utm_source=automated-contact&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=order-shipped&utm_content=2

THANK YOU!!!

I just grabbed a bunch of those Rusty Stumps fittings. They were what was holding me up on plumbing in Rohm & Haas. Now I can more forward on that.

Yep. I think the ones you see here are Hay Bros. I'm very happy with them.

I also still have a stash of Sunrise ones and a bunch that @Lemosteam did and that came with my SD40-2 kits.

They're all good options.

I think there's another option out there too: JNJ maybe?

Thanks for the info.  Since I have a Photon I should probably just draw them up and print them.  Does anyone have any detail specs on them?

Yep. I've helped folks with them a number of times.

If you're interested in posting your drawing to thingiverse and sharing it to the world, I'll happily do it one more time!

Ed,

Do you know of any sources of info?  I know there was a 2 latch and a 3 latch box.  I would like info on both.  I have searched but have come up empty so far.

I summonsed my inner Dick Cavett and made a TV show.

Yes, he sure did.
Hopefully, he starts up again.

Here is my work in progress. Since this photo, it is now painted.



Thanks,
Wolf

Oh yeah! There it is

Went downstairs, cleaned my track and ran some trains for the first time since May.  I have an order from Klein coming tomorrow, so I'll start planting fall deciduous trees on the layout and getting the autumn blend I'm looking for.  I'm not sure I like the outside hill.  It greatly limits photo angles for what I hope will be a signature scene.  I'll experiment with tree placement and see what I get.

Please excuse the crappy cell pics.
