Got loaded this weekend. Finished off the MT Centerbeam flat car loads that I've been playing with for the past 2-weeks. That of course lead up to making a load for the MT 60' Bulkhead flat. More info on the loads can be found over on the 3D Printing page (https://www.therailwire.net/forum/index.php?topic=58618.0).

Working on a Mill Kit.  Still have a lot of trim/cleanup work to do and adding all the signage and clutter.

Made a little progress on the Snow Dozer. I got the brass weight in, and cleaned off some of the printed details to prep it for my details (brass grabs). It’s a great print, I’m excited to see how this will turn out.

Finally I am settled after a cross-country move and although at first I didn't know if I'd have room for it, I've assessed the laundry room and a corner of it should allow for a shelf/switching layout with work area underneath.  I've been championing T-scale for years, but I'm going to dive into Z-scale this time--relatively speaking there's a ton more RTR models and decent track.  I'll fire up the 3D printer again in a little while...  Some of the designs I made for T should scale up pretty well.

Another small project, taking off giant plastic trunks from JTT and plastic palms from China. Using bamboo skewers to make them
look way more real with Gesso to form the trunk. Sisal rope for dead fronds. Depending on the variety of palms, some will have
big trunks. The Desert Fan Palm native to California can grow to 75' - That's the ones getting a makeover.
