I had a bit of a quiet day today - but don't tell Mrs. Woody! A bike ride this morning followed by sowing some seeds for bedding plants taking less time then I thought (as I had run out of potting compost!) meant there was a little bit of extra time for some modelling. There are certain jobs that you put off because you need to tackle them in one go and take more time then you usually have available. One of those jobs was to separate the two baseboards of my 009 narrow gauge layout (they are designed to be split) to undertake some jobs on the wiring. One of those was to find out why one of the sidings was not getting an electrical supply. That actually worked out well as it was only a disconnected wire. The next job was to sort out the electrical spaghetti of wiring under the board. I am no electrician so wires go everywhere although after years of dealing with trying to trace wiring faults on my electrical installations I do at least try to use consistent coloured wires for circuits. What I was facing was this.
A bit of work on the canal wharf has also taken place with the water, wharf walls and coping stones glued together and the various cobbled parts fettled to fit around the tracks. These are cut from a sheet of embossed plastic sheet. I just need to finish the last piece to run between the long siding and then it can all be glued in place.
Now what to make for dinner - Spaghetti meatballs perhaps!
