Nice, but can we have bigger images, please? Or do I have to join Flickr 
to get bigger images?

I was about to ask the same.

I'm a member of Flickr, and that doesn't provide larger images if the ones 
uploaded are small.

I uploaded large images. You should see an 'all sizes' button above the 
image. When you click that, you should see a larger image. I just now made 
it open for downloading, so that may help. I tried it using another account 
and it does work for anyone other than me. Please let me know if it is 
fixed.

I do like the corrugated iron press. I’m just off to the garage now to make 
one, might even try to incorporate some Stanley Knife blades so it sizes at 
the same time.

Another plendid idea - however I have now built the Christopher Wilson 
Mk1 self sizing wriggly tin press :-)

Need to build a Mk2 though, the can get a little stuck at the moment 
getting it of the press and it can tare.

Was lamenting on that last night to my wife. Just finished reading an 
article in 'Great Model Railroads'. The article was written by one of the 
hobby 'Greats', a building was built to house the railroad, somebody else 
designed the electronics and did the wiring, an artist was commissioned to 
paint the backdrop, the hobby 'Great' recruited a scenery 'Great' and the 
two Greats built the scenery with some help from the owner, etc. I suspect 
P.D. Hancock did it all and if he did have help it was volunteer help. The 
hobby press needs to get back to encouraging DIY.

Just wanted to say thanks - Very much enjoyed those posts.
Also agree with the last poster - I find the availability of commercial 
scenic items better than I can make a bit off-putting.

 From reading the old Railway Modeller articles, he wasn't very old when
the first articles were written, and he sounded rather a loner!

Yeah, my old bumpy chenille trees do seem a bit dated ...
