Careful, you'll have @Newportnobby and/or @Trainfish coming all over unnecessary again  :smiley-laughing:

Not me. After 40 years I'd never remember what a G-string is :*(  :angel:

G-strings can be a pain in the arse.

So I'm told  :hmmm:

Quote from: Southerngooner on November 28, 2024, 08:47:02 AMThanks for all the replies so far. The Peco ones are not quite right for SR stock as @martyn has said, while that made by @JanW is lovely, but a bit time consuming! The lower one in @RBTKraisee  post is perfect, and will do both the KA and the Boosters. There must be others out there looking for these so maybe either @RBTKraisee or @njee20 could produce these  if we worked out what was needed? There are a few different types of course.....

These aren't worth trying to sell, so if there's demand (i.e. please let me know!) I could upload the designs to Thingiverse so anyone can print them.

Hi Ross

Good point, these aren't sellable.

If you are going to send some more N15 bits over then if you could include a dozen of the second vac pipe you showed in your earlier post then that would set me up for a while. I'd gladly pay for them, just let me know.
