Steve if you can do that in OO then I should do it in O. Trouble is have I got the patience.

You could do it in O with one hand tied behind your back and all the parts are available.
So no excuses Brian.

Very impressive - not sure I would have the patience. I have the Wills Point Rodding and Extension kit, but it's still in its packaging.

Glued and soldered the last wires and cranks over the last couple of days. I think I was about two cranks away from losing interest.
Did anyone mention painting?
In other news, I successfully bid on the missing ladies toilet for the station set.

I have no doubt that the Wills kits would have produced a neater result although I dread to think how many packs it would take to replicate my efforts. It took over 15 yards of brass wire just for these twenty points.
