I decided to keep the PA's, no longer for sale. Found some more on the shelves and will repaint to Warbonnet's scheme, will end up with ABBA. Bob.

You are brilliant, excellent work, to be admired. Bob.

Shipping for this item, judging from the price of the Santa Fe locos, will be more than 35.00, I am guessing around 60.00, but what ever the cost is, I expect the buyer to pay it. The shipping was 50.00 more than the estimate for the Santa Fe locos, and Keith was nice enough to pay the increase, and I appreciated that. Bob.

These have been sold. Bob.

It has been about an hour and no email yet. Bob.

Yes, but only a great deal of someone buys them, Bob.

Yes they do. Bob. email: rbrown77138@verizon.net

MTH PA units, a and be unit. A is Pennsylvania RR, with PS3 Brand new, B is Santa Fe, almost new, a dummy 550.00 for the two.

This A unit is a slave, so it has to operate with a non slave A unit. One B unit, I painted. The one B unit is an F7. The original set was PS2. 400.00

I have had it for about 10 years and never used it, and I know they don't make them anymore, so I don't know. Bob.

Here is a Dallee Engineer with remote, and I believe it is the lower watt model. 150.00 Bob.

Take some time to look through the posts and I think you will see things here that you will not see anywhere else. Bob.

I have a pair of MTH side frames, do you still need them? Bob.

Hey Brian, here is the picture of the tender, sorry it is 1:32, but can you use it? You could stretch it out, if you need 1:29. Bob.

Here is what I looked like shortly after returning from Nam.

I prefer the term calculating. Welcome home, and thanks for your service also. Bob.

I appreciate that. Yes, I felt as if I was flying all of the time. Here is my experience with pad printing. I bought a pad printer, modified it from an open well to a closed well and proceeded to learn the method, but after many attempts, I quickly figured out that the pad printing system is for producing many parts in rapid succession. If you just hesitate for a second too long, the ink dries on the plate. There has to be a rapid movement of picking up the ink and placing it on the part and found that just producing one part without the rapid sequence of movement didn't work out for me, so I went back to making decals, or actually printing with a cnc directly on the locomotives. You can see some videos on YouTube, search my channel: omiateeful and you will see some videos of my printing, still a work in progress. As far as the tender goes, you might find an stl file on the web, or you could learn a 3d drawing program and draw your own. It takes some patience to learn to 3d draw, but, very rewarding. There are a few good free programs out there, better than paying a lot of money. Fusion 360 is one of them as well as Blender. I am trying to learn Blender, with great difficulty. Remember, if you find an stl or obj file, even if it is HO scale, you can rescale it to 1:29 easily, especially with this Bambu X1C with just clicking on a few buttons. Bob.

Thanks Sean, I appreciate that. Bob.

Size: 256mmx256mmx256mm, about 10 inches cubed. Very easy to scale, by measurement, just plug in the size in mm., or change the percentage size, push enter and that's it, done. It uses .stl files. I was a CW2 Pilot, and when I got back, I was an instructor pilot for 2 years and then got out. I flew 1120 hours in Nam, and was very lucky. Bob.

Here is the X1C printing in real time some small parts to the helicopter. Bob.

Here is what all of the major parts look like. Bob.

Yes Sean, I always said that when there was a printer that I could afford and catered to a dummy like me, I would buy one, and this is it. Bob.
