I've decided I spend far too much time just sitting and pondering and wondering 'what if......' so I decided, like some others who shame with their work rate, to just crack on, after all what damage can I do, is anything ever 'wrong'?

The dock/quay side wall has had its first 'top' coat and the cross timbers are cut ready to stain and put in.

That's a very clever way of getting a continuous run ... well thought out. I particularly like the way the run goes on different levels. Its inspiring for me a novice at this - thank you for posting.

Appreciate the comment, thank you. I wanted to achieve a longer continuous run than just once round the shed and it was something I’d tried on a 6ft x 4ft as a teenager - a bit too ambitious on that scale!

Thank you.

Unfortunately other matters have got in the way this last fortnight so no further progress has been made.

I’m conscious that with progressing the dock area I haven’t run anything for what seems an eon, so with the arrival of the new Gaugemaster cleaning wagon (for all those hard to get to spots) I’ll be having a ‘play time’. Then it’s back to the dock, water time.

One doesn't get to see a quay too often. If you find the time, a little video of the quay works in operation would be most interesting. :geek:
