Gauge 1 / 'O' Gauge test track
At long last I got around to building a test track for my Gauge 1 and 'O' gauge models. Very useful when you can't get out into the garden for a test run, due to the weather or leaves on the line.
So for anyone that may be interested, below is a description of what went into the construction of this test track.
The locos shown in to photo are a Gauge 1 Bachmann Brassworks 'Black 5' and two 'O' Gauge Dapol Class 08 diesel shunters.
Gearbox development using 3D printing
Just a quick update to show the lastest of our prototype gearboxes with 3D printed case. This is a 38:1 worm and wheel box, the one with the fly wheel can have both input and output shafts remove with out having to dis-assemble the gear box.
Cheque Based Mail Order Payments
Having now looked at our new bank changes for the processing of cheques/postal orders. We have taken the decision that we will now have to introduce a £5.00 surcharge charge for all orders that are paid for either by cheque or postal order. We are sorry to have to take this action but it has been force on us by the increase in bank charges for these items.
This new charge will only apply to cheque/postal order payments and will be introduced from Monday 14th October 2013. Any orders that are received from this date on, that do not meet this rquirement will be returned.
