Hi 'Ya "S"-heads! As the weekend neared, I set my goal for the weekend is to have the brass work finished on the two Baldwin's on the workbench.
I just may reach it. Below are a couple of pic links to show what's been accomplished on the DS-4-4-1000 project: * End handrails in place. * Cab rails in place. * Cab shades made/installed. * Hood side rail installed. * Front wipers installed. * Modified the roof corners (contoured to blend with the cab side, then sanded and smoothed) to better reflect the Baldwin cab. Just a few more odds and ends, and the brass work will be FINISHED on this one! The S-12 project will then get its brass work caught up to the same level as this one... and then it's wrap up the details/mods and smooth any sanded areas that have noticable sanding marks. That done, the pair will be very close to ready for paint. However, I think next would be DCC/speaker installation before painting? Never done this DCC thing... figure all the open/close/open/close routine to get the guts installed, it would be better to make the painting process last? http://www.vscalecreations.com/3rail/SLSF241e.jpg http://www.vscalecreations.com/3rail/SLSF241f.jpg Ming The Merciless aka Andre Ming ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
