I also imagine that they use some sort of powered drill (maybe a flex-shaft unit?).

That makes me wonder about the wire & drill bit sizes (I don't have one yet to measure).  The smaller they get, the more fragile the bits become (and powered tools have to be used pretty carefully).

I do wish that they put the dimpled shells on the Operator series.   It kind of surprises me that they would have two sets of tooling, i.e. one w/dimples and one w/cast-on parts.

Nope! There are worse... far worse. He's not even negative, just blunt and honest.

Yes, thank you.  That is exactly how I am.  Jbub is one the the few here that understand me.

I understand Peteski totally and agree with Jbub.  Even met Peteski in person at Amherst (don't bring up his ankles, he doesn't like that  ).

The same reason they didn't do H1 in the Rivit Counter series... Give it time...

Santa Fe #666. You just gotta love it. Not so happy about their rendition of the ATSF silver. Its just me, I suppose. Their red seems a bit faded too, but thats what weathering is for. These shades will look good next to the BNSFs though I rekon. But I love the fact you can buy the 666.
