Whilst I'm waiting for some bits to arrive and be sourced before I can carry on with   my N gauge stuff,  I have dug out a few unmade etched brass kits and started making them.  Only trouble they are in another scale.
Found an old Heico Sand tower kit and doing that first.

Z gauge kits don't half wake you up to precision modeling.
Decided to do this and some old Z gauge cars and lorries (all in brass) before I tackle any more N gauge brass models.

Photo's when finished,as very difficult to get a decent picture before built.

Mad indeed haha  .
Must have some precission tools for those kits. I remember the Faller plastic kits for z gauge, not as detailed as brass but damned good non the less once 'cleaned up' flash wise.

Book your appointment at the opticians NOW !

But I wan't to see the pictures nevertheless 

Jerry - not bothering with the opticians.
Think I need to visit the other kind of optic. 

Sand tower now built but not painted yet.
Will post pic when painted.

Decided may be easier to stick to N Gauge and have just started building EP's Brass 48DS kit. Also just realised I have no wheels the correct diameter so will have to order those before I can finish it.

I'll drink to that...but then it is Sunday and I'll drink to anything. Sounds like you are well on the road to recovery 

Feeling good now Jerry but still got a bit of a wheeze, may go and see the quack in the week.
