Craig, I thought I needed 18, but I just got word, from a leading V&T historian, that the V&T didn’t use tie plates in their earlier years. So I need a quantity of zero, bummer. I was looking forward to putting some in, haha!
But thanks much for your offer.
Okay, well then I will make sure to send you zero!

Good deal. Just let me know what the shipping cost is.

UPS estimates it at $25.93, USPS $23.49, and Fed Ex is saying they want $34.76 to ship it. I can overnight them for only $235.46 on Amazon (sorry no prime discount). Let me know what option you want, and as soon as I get the check (and it clears) I will mail them off.

Send them …if Cliffs check doesn’t clear I will match that shipping and double it sending you a bank cashiers check …you have the chance to double your money here Craig if you follow through !

I just love this pic…
Don’t like the new Kylon color max though…hate formula change.
Still a nice model for the 10’ rule

This sounds like a great opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a sweet pyramid scheme! Craig, hurry up and send the non-plates and I’ll immediately not sign the check. Rooster doubles that and we split it three ways, woo hoo!!

As I tell my students when they ask for an “A”. I say "cut me a check for a million dollars, and as soon as it clears my bank account, I will give everyone an “A”. (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-tongue-out.gif)
The invisible box is on it’s way. Since you didn’t specify what shipping method, I went the overnight route. Because it’s an invisible package, the routing number is a secret.

This afternoon I thought I heard the truck pull up to deliver the package, but when I went upstairs to check I couldn’t see anything on the porch. So I went to tracking to see the Proof of Delivery photo. All it showed was my front door.
So we’re good. Check’s in the mail to Rooster (I think?).
Not sure how that invisible ink works on the envelope, but that’s someone else’s problem now. (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-tongue-out.gif)
In the ongoing saga of this year’s house exterior rehab, this weekend’s been pressure washing and deck repair. BUT, I got half the day today for important things. (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-foot-in-mouth.gif)
Here’s the finished display, with the painted rails all spiked in with Rooster’s spikes. The mirror has its protective film on it still, but you can see the truck’s underside. The mirror angle could have been better, but people at the convention can stoop over a bit if they actually care to see the underside.
There’s gobs of 3d printed parts on this thing, and I did the prep (getting the sprue nubs off, a little filing here and there) and “staining” of these ones that are mounted on the car perimeter.
The the fun stuff: mounting some parts. I was a little concerned that the 2-hole transverse rod straps would go on, with all the tolerances involved. But they all did, so I was quite glad. Other than those and the L-shaped corner plates, and the screwed-in cleats, all the other parts had pins that inserted into pre-drilled holes. I used CA for everything here.
I really need to improve on my CA application… But I’m glad to have gotten these steps out of the way. Next will probably be the brake system.

Wow, isn’t THAT the truth! Just beautiful work!
Cliff, that is a real piece of art. Is this going to be a display piece only? I for one would be afraid to run it on my RR for fear I would break something.

He ain’t running it…he has mirrors and lights under the damn thing!
