A modeling day here at Chateau dandruff. I went round to Teach's place to try out some Carrs solder paint. this is a suspension of solder powder in liquid flux. I assembled another of the 2mm bogies with this, and it was a bit easier than normal techniques. I'll have to buy some.
I've also received the latest order of rail and sleepers from Woodsworks, so will get stuck in to the 2nd module in the next couple of days.
The worlds first NZ120 blog. A mix of history of the scale, latest news and some modeling thrown in on the side. Poor spelling an added extra.

Just got my NMRA N scale gage. Already have my woodworks rails and sleepers and a plan in my head. Would you be able to do a detailed post on how you build your points? Just want to see how you do your switch blades and tie bar.
Michael, have a look on utube there are several tutorials how to handlay trak like this one http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=thebige61#g/u
