At Lego shows in 2024, my Castle class would occasionally derail when there was a kink in the track, particularly when entering corners.
I put this down to the chassis setup I'd chosen, based on Carl Greatrix's previous Castle model, whereby the rear bogie wheels were fixed to the main chassis. In some cases, it seemed these wheels were getting raised off the track by the driving wheels behind.
I've now re-worked the chassis to have a more conventional pivoted bogie. There is still only 1 set of flanged drivers, to allow the bogie to not crash sideways into the cylinders. However now the bogie is on a single pivot, positioned above the rear bogie wheels.
This should help to 'steer' the loco into corners, and the little shoulder on the pin piece also helps to keep the weight on the bogie wheels.
I stitched down the pleat and inverted it, and then released the pleat about seven inches from the hemline.
jinu supplied the tshirt but it was slightly ill fitting (it was a guy's shirt). boatneck/capsleeve anyone? not bad considering i really suck with needle and thread. thanks for not putting up a fuss when i said i wanted to cut it up!

This Vortex was built - incorporating modifications - from plans by owner Brian Thompson. It has a Triumph Trophy 1200cc engine. Like the original Marcos it has a plywood structure with body panels in fibreglass. The interior is trimmed in leather. Seen at the North Norfolk Car Club's Show n Shine Evening.
This is the back of the little board that lives in the battery compartment. the minijack has two switches in it, between pins 1&2 and 4&5, the collar, centre pin, is connected to earth. When a minijack is inserted into the female, it breaks contacts connecting pins 1 & 5 to the jack. As you can see, in its natural state, the original capacitor is connected to the shutter board, and the LDR is working its magic for Auto shutter control. When a jack is inserted, the circuit uses the 2.2uF capacitor on the "manual control module" as well as the resistor bank instead of the LDR.
the research and figuring out of the circuit and how to modify it would not have been possible for me without Victor W.'s generous help.
Since modern manufactured kayaks usually have seats for an average oversized butt, I had to modify my seat to get a positive centered location.
To do that, I've got a sheet of 12mm high-density EVA foam, cut and shaped two symmetrical pads out of it and glued them to the seat using a rubber cement glue.
This is a wonderful material that gives you really great fine suede texture when sanded with a coarse grit abrasive. However, it is a bit tricky to work with due to its density. Unlike lighter foams, this HD doesn't want to keep a new shape when bent, so you need a lot of creative clamping for gluing it to a curved surface.
Some sources recommend 3M 77 spray adhesive for it, but this is totally wrong for any outdoor equipment - it softens when heated by the sunlight and everything will fall apart. Therefore, either Barge cement or any other rubber cement glue must be used.
Staff recommends adopting consistent state regulations for Atlantic reef fish and using the process of adopting federal standards under Chapter 120.54(6), Florida Statutes. The proposed rule amendment would allow captain and crew of for-hire vessels to keep recreational bag limits of vermilion snapper, groupers, and golden tilefish in state waters of the Atlantic. Staff also recommends making a technical change to a federal rule reference in this rule. If the Commission approves the proposed rule amendment, it would be advertised and then filed without further public hearing and become effective as soon as possible.
Staff has evaluated the rules under the standards of 68-1.004, FAC, and found them to be in compliance.

Additional IR receiver and M motor have been added and original shock absorbers have been replaced with 6,5L, hard spring. I tried to keep original look as much as possible and just to add this cool function. VIDEO: youtu.be/QBd-y9XLZOc
Something weird happened to colours on this photo, but it's only WIP anyway.
My first modification almost done! I opened his eyes and tried to give him some cat look. It still needs some work, but... *_*
File this one under glad it's still there but wow, what horrible modifications have been done to this poor building! The thing is covered in stucco but at least the cornice still exists, to some extent, as well as the chimney stacks.
The ground level retail has been converted into suites and the building is a little run down but it sure would look great restored! I plan to rephotograph this then and now picture in the fall when the building is more visible when the tree sheds its leaves. This is one of the few heritage buildings remaining on this stretch of Kingsway in Collingwood. As you can see in 1935, not much existed around it.

The new fans kind of disrupt the fog a bit too much, but redirecting the flow a bit worked like a charm.

The 'Sign Modifiers' have been at it again in Loughborough.
I will inform the Highways Department to get this removed.
I inverted the pleat, edge stitched the inverted pleat, made a mock placket to make sure the pleat stayed put, and added MOP buttons that are 1/2" from the edge of the placket and 1 1/4" apart. I made a Size 8, fabric is Trick or Treat Street by Sheri Berry. I think I want one for each day of the week!
Custom 1953 Buick
Just finished June 1, 2009. Hundreds of small modifications and hand made pieces all form this into the 60's style custom that you see here. Of course, lots of work was required to make these modifications fit properly. 6 Long years of work and lots of money went into this custom. It has not been seen in any show and is all new. Unfortunately, because of the economy I must sell. The price is a firm $60,000. Please contact me larry@wonder-years.com.

The Cheyenne tail turret was a modification added to the B-17G model at the United Airlines Modification Center at Cheyenne, Wyoming (and at Field Modification Centres in England). In order to avoid slowing down the main production lines many modifications were NOT implemented at the main production lines at Boeing, Douglas and Vega. Instead, completed aircraft were flown to modification centers before going overseas.
By the spring of 1943, 1,600 workers were employed at the Cheyenne Modification Center with an average of six planes a day leaving Cheyenne for combat areas. After two years of operation, the center had completed modifications on 3,500 B-17s (Wyoming State Museum)

I didn't like the fuel tank tubes unsupported at the bottom and wanted to provide more protection for the fuel tank in the event of a butt-slide.
