Never noticed before that the Unifrog/Electrofrog identifier on the Peco points packaging matches the point direction. Always been hunting for the tiny text...maybe I should just look at the actual point!!! https://t.co/khNxEFsPhJ

All done....will monitor temps to see how it goes. https://t.co/QwEt4HeGVj

Today is the day, let's get those temps down in the loft! https://t.co/rgiFCUQ0LW

Today, we're at TINGS, the international n gauge show. People certainly not afraid of coming to shows!!! https://t.co/EaQ8ZYHVIV

And with the lid it becomes a cement wagon #ngauge #ngaugerailway https://t.co/xfBu2uLwxx

2 for the price of 1. Without the top cover it's an open wagon #modelrailway #ngauge #ngaugerailway https://t.co/DO23OIf88C

Right, so here are all the parts from a fresh print for my Prestflo Cement Wagon #modelrailway #ngauge #ngaugerailway https://t.co/SE2wqPi6Ed

[A Dad and His Lad @dadandhislad]

A pile of test prints. Not failed, tests. Tweaking geometry and trying different support options to prevent surface marking etc. https://t.co/1VTyxyi1DB

[A Dad and His Lad @dadandhislad]

And fresh off the printer! A few tweaks to be made to help the print and a free minor geometry tweaks - hey, that's rapid prototyping! https://t.co/CZyrwJchXH

[A Dad and His Lad @dadandhislad]

A little something I've been working on. Love these Prestflo Wagons but have been struggling to get hold of them. So I've designed my own in N gauge. https://t.co/z559NUmd21

[A Dad and His Lad @dadandhislad]

A new model I'm working on - Jack Leg Cabins. Example printed in N gauge. https://t.co/TFnGRUuv9n
