I have been absolutely slammed with business, things are really going great, and we're expanding but it makes posting difficult. I'm still monitoring though, just don;t get to say hi as often as I'd like.

Dont worry,this is my last week of summer gym and health, I will be on a lot more soon. I took those in the summer so that I can take drawing 1 and webpage design during the year. Plus it take out 1 year of each in 2 1/2 weeks.

Projects

With the change of the seasons so did the projects. I had a hard starting problem on one car and now I'm changing an intake gasket on another.

I was researching a 1.5 volt power supply that feeds off the track. It's perfect for O scale to replace the D cell for the Diesel horn.

I found a 50 year old book on cut out O scale buildings for a RR set up. Probably not much interest to a modeler but it it is very nostalgic to me. I scanned the switch tower and printed it out on photo paper. I plan to mount it on foam core sheet and assemble it. I have never worked with the stuff. I have the x acto knifes so it will be a learning experience.

Pictures? they are fun to take but without feedback on what people are looking for I'm kinda stuck. The old train stations was a good idea. Plenty of them around here.

Ebay? well the fun of bidding high against someone who was identifiable was fun but now it's all secret so poo the fun left and so did I.

I always felt some sellers bidded on their items.With that in mind I never bought high priced items.

I guess we just have to sweat out the summer and enjoy it.

I never thought about that as a downside to ebay's new secret bidder system. b***d may not be the same bidder as b***d. Kinda makes it hard to tell if the same person is bidding on multiple items from the same seller just to drive prices up.

Yea, I also think it is really stupid to censor the name out... Like you said, the names that are shown are completely random, it should at least be the real first and last letter of the username...

Maybe you could post some of the scanned images around here... You would have to host them on Photobucket or attach them from your computer, that way they would not be shrunk down and have "modeltrainforum.com" in the bottom corner
