Dan,

Great job on the machine shop.  I happened to see on ebay that you were selling your original resin castings.  Are they still available?

Hi Frank,
which ones were you talking about?  there were the work benches or the On30 flat cars.

I think we saw the beginning of that layout on RR line? Anyway, hope we get to see some more pics soon, as it sounds great. One of my favorite prototypes.

Frank,
I am still doing the castings when time permits.  I sold out the run I did through eBay.  I was normally just doing small batches, and selling at the odd exhibition I might show at, and finally went to the effort to sell the rest online.  I didn't want to get to involved with the casting, because although its good funding for my hobby, it means I use up my hobby time doing work for other people.  Please email me if you want to talk about them any further.  I have done a few individual orders outside of eBay, they just might take longer if I dont have any cast up ready to go.  I have a few new casting ideas I'd like to do, but between fulltime work and chasing 4 kids aged 3 and under, modelling time usually only happens after 10pm if I can still be bothered concentrating on that sort of thing!
