Thread: WARCO have had phone problems. |
09/07/2009 16:36:48 |
Warco would like to apologise to everyone who might have had difficulty making contact be telephone recently. We applied to ISDN with the purpose of
enhanced line clarity. BT surveyed our site and confirmed that we could
be connected.
The engineer who came to make the connection said that we could not be connected to ISDN. Some days later our phone lines were
disconnected, due we are told to the fact that the engineer did not
report that he was unable to make the connection, consequently when the
telephone exchange tried to switch from analogue to ISDN it cut the
lines off. It took 24 hours to reverse the situation.
Worse still, one day later we were disconnected again with another 24 hour wait. Again, our apologies. BT have a lot to answer for. |

Hi There
I have decided to give the complete set of Boxhill plans free in the next Special.
This is a 5in. gauge model of the Brighton Terriers by Martin Evans.
It is an established design and many succesful locomotives have been built.

Thread: A professional boiler - poor service |
07/07/2009 09:47:57 |
Hi There
Anyone buying a custom made boiler should ask for references from recent previous customers. This should help when deciding a boiler maker.
Anyone with a long delivery time may well be a one man band who produces a good product and has a big order book.
You should also ensure you know who who is making the boiler and that it is not being sub contracted.
If anyone would like to post recomendations of good boiler makers they are welcome to do so as long as they have no connection with the firm.

Thread: vega v twin for stroke aero engine |

Hi There
A photocopy of an article for personal use is OK.
It is classed as reasonable educational use I think.
Plans are available from MyHobbyStore but they are not listed on the web site.
I will see if I can get them added.

Drawings are straight frames.
I have access to all drawings.
The Dukedog is parallel boiler, Dulldog tapered.

Thread: Lathe height? |

Elbow height to cross slide handwheel height.
Bend elbow, you should be able to turn cross slide with arm horizontal.

Thread: plastic containers |

HI There
Yes, that is them.
£4.99 for 5 can't be bad.
They are good quality mouldings, not cheap blow mouldings as you would expect.
