      I found out that I had really screwed up on a design I did for a friend down under, and I set out to correcting it.

      Here is the more correct version of Myrtle.

      Since right now I am awaiting around 300? prints, I have been working on some short projects of LBSC stuff.
      Also been trying to go back and standardize things a bit. The spokes are gone sadly.

      Until next time, best regards,

        Also, true to my word I am going to be building a locomotive.
        The castings are coming from my client, which one I haven't decided yet. It's a hard choice at times to make frankly.
        Mostly because the 7.5" gauge side of the game offers so many different options. Either way.

        Here's Cracker, it shares a fair number of parts with Myrtle.
        Initially, going off of the book by Hollingsworth, I was lead to believe that this little critter was 0 gauge.

        WRONG. It's gauge 1.

        Also, like Myrtle, its painfully incomplete, thankfully because of how similar they are in terms of design I think that this shall go rather smoothly. Also like Myrtle, there are a fair number of parts which I believe can be shared between these little beasts. 

        Damn this one is TINY.

          Guess who was wrong again?

          Me.
          It IS infact 0 gauge, but when 1 5/16" and 15/16" looks REALLY similar due to bad hand writing it can REALLY cause a problem.
