hold your hammer drill to the form work when you have filled it with concrete it will act as a vibrator and will compact the mix

Don't know how much I can get done this week. Track laying on Saturday and DVRR openday on Sunday. We'll have to see!

Had the other former machined today. Above the big arch had two more "windows " put in.
Pictures tomorrow

Ooh that means double track T gauge

 

[Philbahn]

Second shutter produced. Extra windows above the arch for the rack line on the right of picture.
Now need to modify first former

 

[Philbahn]

Picture of how it could look if it goes acording to plan

Now we really get to see the size of the thing.

I think this is a master class in casting comcrete - simply superb. The only question I will ask Phil is had you considered polystyrene for the archway formers?

 

[Philbahn]

Hi Mick , Yes we have tried it in the past, LGB 2 and maybe LGB 3
But the cut out gives a former and with some bendy plywood I can make the plugs.
It is a one shot use so it doesn't matter if they get broken when removing them

 

[Philbahn]

Hi Paul yes it is a fair size 12 feet 3.7 meter long and 30inches 700mm high and 7inches 190mm wide I personally wouldn't say BIG more like humungous

Now we really get to see the size of the thing.

ah looking good again phil, but (it dont go round any bends) remove l/h shed and carry on to the next siding. (now that would be REALY IMPRESSIVE)

 

[Philbahn]

Allan ---------------------------Shut up

Doing a straight one is bad enough.

Got the left hand side nearly completely assembled.
Gone off the idea of plugging the windows. Just going to put the bendy ply into the windows

 

[Phil]
