I'm still bashing holes in skulls, and getting my little Zomlings moving.

Behind schedule, but I may get there tomorrow.

Some people think outside the box.
I think Chris outthinks all sides of the box.

Amazing!

I love the saddle tank loco with the Lima 0-6-0 chassis.

Yes. It is lovely to see these creations. We are not sure what has happened to Emettman but maybe we can add to this thread to keep it alive?

I love this thread because Emettman made such interesting things. :D

It is why I have brought it back to the fore to look at.

I wonder how many other modellers also build something similar?

Maybe we can all build something unusual and delightful?

A challenge?

The last post from Chris (Emmettman) was 27-Oct-2018. Despite several people making enquiries we never found out what had become of him. We know he didn't enjoy the best of health either physical or mental. Let's be glad that we have this thread to remind us of his genius and wild imagination.

Yes. I really miss his lovely work. I may make something crazy myself? :D

I feel the need to make something unique and unusual.

Somewhere I have a little razor saw I had for Christmas...

But breaking things down is one thing. Re-assembling them and getting them to work is another matter!

I think I need to get to work and make something! :D

Need to nip over to my usual thread... :D
