Dash 8 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Hi Nick, nice, when I watched your videos I remembered my old log buggy, ideal for live Steam. Built in the early 90's of wood. I still have an old model of Rivarossi. Recreated in 1/32 with a sense of proportion, I think the wheels could be bigger. Thank you Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screwy Nick Posted June 23, 2021 Author Share Posted June 23, 2021 Jan, the wheels look fine to me. And those are real logs, not foam like I have. I tried, but failed at that. Max is still watching closely. How is Moritz? well I hope. Bug sends his regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash 8 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 That was Moritz, who takes care of what I eat.... Greetings from Max and Moritz to Bug. Thank you Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screwy Nick Posted June 23, 2021 Author Share Posted June 23, 2021 Jan, sorry I confused them, I even compared it to the pic you sent of both of them. Bug seems to make a slight appearance in most of the videos, I think he visions himself Alfred Hitchcock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash 8 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Well I think Bug takes care of the garden, all dogs do that when a pigeon lands here....it doesn't stay long. I dried the wood for the log cars for many years and then cut it. Then the cutting surfaces remain smooth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screwy Nick Posted June 24, 2021 Author Share Posted June 24, 2021 Drying must have been my error. I lashed them down almost fresh, and when they dried they were loose and some wrinkled. What kind of tree are they from?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash 8 Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 That was a long time ago, but I use an app for plants. That was striped maple, see in the picture.The young shoots or branches are ideal. The bark is very thin and does not dissolve when it is dry. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screwy Nick Posted June 24, 2021 Author Share Posted June 24, 2021 Jan, thank you, I'll keep a look out for one. Maybe the guy I get my fire wood will know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
