Another enjoyable evening with nine joining in and once again great to see Gary Whiting, Hugh Norwood and Paul Alliet joining us. Thanks once more to Ian for setting up the Zoom meeting especially as he was in a hotel room in Manchester. There was no formal agenda and from the Show 'n' Tell, Bob presented his great little micro layout (120mm diameter) using track from Jellymodels Hugh then presented another great micro layout on top of a Morris Dancers hat. (Hope no one knocks the train off when these sticks start swinging about) Hugh then presented his new test track containing 2 passing loops and a single siding which will be mounted on a foamboard baseboard. Gary showed some more of his excellent Knightwing kit bashed diesels along with a Dapol Drewery. There was an update from Paul on the progress of his layout and Graeme presented how he has developed some parts for his low-loader skip chassis, shaping plastic utilising a hair dryer and vacuum flask. This note does not do what Graeme achieved any justice so I am hoping that he will post his images from last night with a full explanation of how this was done. Graeme also presented his idea of using powerpoint to display a selection of the 009 News front pages and articles at exhibitions to save taking along hard copies, especially in current circumstances. General chat, some modelling related, a few laughs rounded off another enjoyable meeting. Our next meeting is scheduled for Monday 19th July, again there will be no formal agenda, but will we probably start with a discussion on the Glasgow Exhibition in February at which Ron has secured a place for us. Following that discussion it will be an open forum with hopefully some more Show 'n' tell. Please feel free to add anything I may have missed. See you on the 19th.
Regards
