11-12 2:17:41 DAZed I have been working on my layout the past few days. Got two of the five pieces laminated together, and I was working on trying to get another pair done but the wife went to bed early and hacking on styrofoam is not compatible.
11-12 2:17:34 soccrdad30 oh, and I have some decals to work on too from K4
11-12 2:17:05 rvn2001 You are correct, John.
11-12 2:16:47 rvn2001 That's good, Doug.
11-12 2:16:42 soccrdad30 I think we are supposed to get a 2.8% in SSA increase next year
11-12 2:16:09 DAZed Thom, not too much longer for me. 5 more days
11-12 2:15:42 rvn2001 all off
11-12 2:15:35 ejshelton I got my 13th check this year....from my retirment
11-12 2:15:26 rvn2001 ..of course....we're all of for Christmas Vacation now...
11-12 2:15:25 DAZed Mike, no it was cold hard cash, and the most we've ever gotten in my 20+ years at the company
11-12 2:14:53 DAZed finally, something beneficial about not being retired!!!
11-12 2:14:32 GNFan ...and not the company's undying gratitude, Doug?
11-12 2:14:26 rvn2001 Me neither.
11-12 2:14:11 soccrdad30 no Christmas bonus for me :(
11-12 2:14:08 rvn2001 That's great, Doug!
11-12 2:13:41 DAZed I can report that we actually got a Christmas bonus this year, and it was quite impressive....not jelly of the month
11-12 2:13:12 soccrdad30 them Grizwald's
11-12 2:12:43 soccrdad30 I need to finish up my current project of 5 3d buildings to accent paint, windows, blinds, and other details
11-12 2:12:33 rvn2001 Doug, I'm watching Christmas Vacation...
11-12 2:11:30 soccrdad30 seal it
11-12 2:11:26 GNFan Hi, John, Thom, Ellen, and Doug.
11-12 2:11:25 soccrdad30 plan to do that Doug
11-12 2:11:23 rvn2001 See Doug's warning above. I would be sure to seal it really well with clearcoat.
11-12 2:11:02 ejshelton Rainy and 35 here
11-12 2:10:55 DAZed just make sure you seal/glue it good
11-12 2:10:48 soccrdad30 Mike, 7 inches of snow last night and this morning
11-12 2:10:33 soccrdad30 so I have a Ball jar with liquid rust I plan to test out the next few days on a few test cars
11-12 2:10:24 GNFan Rainy and - ahem! - 55 degrees here.
11-12 2:10:24 DAZed I would be very careful using that technique in model railroading...the fine particles can find their way into loco motors....not ideal.
11-12 2:09:57 ejshelton Hi Mike
11-12 2:09:56 GNFan <---- (singing) We're havin' a heat wave / A (relative) heat wave...
11-12 2:09:51 rvn2001 Hi Mike.
11-12 2:09:36 soccrdad30 hi Mike
11-12 2:09:35 rvn2001 I found a guy on 3Dptrain that does the MoPac MotoRailer in HO. I asked him if he could reduce it to Z scale.
11-12 2:09:31 soccrdad30 actual video I used to follow instructions to make the rust «link»
11-12 2:08:46 soccrdad30 first video to give an idea on how to use it... «link»
11-12 2:08:20 rvn2001 Sounds like a science experiment.
11-12 2:08:19 DAZed yeah I don't imagine they will engage a lot of customers with the RDC's. I plan to pick up a pair if they are still available by the time something else interesting comes along. (which I'm sure they will be still available)
11-12 2:07:53 soccrdad30 white vinegar, salt, steel wool pad, and peroxide
11-12 2:07:20 soccrdad30 actual rust, not from water
11-12 2:07:06 rvn2001 ...or did you use your new bark paint?
11-12 2:06:45 rvn2001 Did you put some iron in water?
11-12 2:06:20 soccrdad30 one other thing... I made rust today :)
11-12 2:06:00 rvn2001 Yup, I saw that today.
11-12 2:05:45 soccrdad30 I see Anthony warned everyone about his holiday plans
11-12 2:05:38 rvn2001 I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
11-12 2:05:07 soccrdad30 I have a feeling I may not get any AZL special. I bet he has a ton of other stuff to clear out
11-12 2:04:27 rvn2001 Yup, I got the motel stuff from his web site.
11-12 2:04:13 DAZed Hi John, Ellen, Thom
11-12 2:04:13 soccrdad30 Doug, 0-2 for the AZL specials
