cheers Ian,nice to have a couple of comments,i wont mind negative or constructive comments either

And keep posting I'm interested.
You should try the other way round when I first started posting I got loads of feedback (I'm on loads of forums) now I get a few (usually only the loyal few) feedback Ian the one who just posted here is one of them. Don't go by who replys as to whether people are interested (one of the drawbacks of this site is it dosent show them) but go but the number of views ( one of the forums I'm on on my traction avant build (the first one anyway) I had 40 comments (sounds like a lot but this was over 4 months) but when I looked at the views it was 27,000 yes that's right I was at the time saying on that forum about the lack of comments and was pointed to the views. On here I had loads of comments so knew there was interest in it but on the other forum it seemed like there was little interest. The point I'm trying to make is though you can't see the number of views on here that dosent mean no one is interested this is without doubt the friendliest forum on the web but there have been a few improvements as John has changed his servers and unfortunately some things have gone or have been moved where I can't find them, for instance there was an area for new members to introduce themselves (can't find that now) keep at it mate the more you post the more you will get noticed.

thanks again Ken,im not looking for gushing comments,as i said,some would be nice,but its not the be and end all,i also post on a farm model forum,but i have been on there for years

[Guest]

Not that I've ever built a farm model but what forum is that, you should checkout some od Eddie solos builds (his name is actually Simon (go figure) he is the master of all things rusty.

[Guest]

its the farm toy forum Ken,there are scratch builds on there but its mainly buying the model and displaying them,models are basic right up to highly detailed ones,i tend to weather them and basic models improve them with numberplates,adding drivers etc,all in 1/32 scale
