There is a two part article coming up in 009 News written by Colin Herrington on how he made a 009 specific turntable using a plastic lid as a foundation and a cheap Japanese motor powered through the normal controller. Jan/Feb issues.

Surely you mean inexpensive Chris? :police:

Hi Steve,

Well, notwithstanding turntables, I think a competition may be in order entitled "What is Steve's name?" I always thought your name was Steve Fackrell, which at least is how we have it on the Wessex NGM NGSouth 2018 and last year's Colehill members day lists that I have. However not only does this forum call you Steve Facknell, but I notice the latest 009 News has you down (page 21) as Steve Fackerell!

Attention To Detail training day for all on the Committee needed?

Yes, Mick - that's something which has been worrying me for some time, too!!

How about a members' poll to decide what his name should be?!

Here is a good "How to make a turntable" article. I am tempted to make one myself!

Can I add that we have two of Colin's turntables on the 'Teifi Gorge' layout, both hand-cranked and both operate faultlessly.
I commend them to the house.
