It's coming along. Kind of nice to have an area to play in finally that's right next to the shop. The 1/10 scale stuff is a PITA to move any distance. I haven't touched the conveyor other than the times I've walked by it and hit my leg on it in the shop.lol It seemed to be working OK the last time I used it but it could still use some tweaking. I think the biggest thing it needs is a brush to keep dirt out of the lower roller.

The compound is coming along great Reg. I love the bridge, Reminds me of the typical logging road bridges I see in the bush made out of rail ties.

There's no written rules for our play zones but I suggest no more cheating with the big toys ok.

I know how you like to jump into something and go all out till its done. Can't do that with the compound, this is your test in slow and steady because there is no race. Gotta make it last ......atleast that's what I keep telling myself.

Keep the pics and vids coming.

I just this last week have had the opportunity to start some spring cleanup here. Definitely jealous of your spot!! Hope it rains for a month!! Lol!! Naa it's looking good and keep doing what your doing.
Haha, we've had plenty of rain lately. It looks like we are headed back to sunshine this week though so that's good. Gotta get the roads in before it dries too much or they won't pack. If you find that gas card, I will be off work for the rest of the month... Just sayin Of course I will be working in the shop some of the time...

No doubt! I wish I could beam you guys here. I'm getting bored without company and it takes forever one truck load at a time. I need a fleet operating!

Thanks Mario. Yeah I can get carried away with things. I guess you could say that I don't like to F around. If I decide I am going to do something I usually give it 100%. I have most of the main stuff done now with the bigger machinery. I think from here on out it will be mostly RC although I would like to move in a couple more boulders. I don't plan to take my time really but I promise to use the toys as much as possible...

A few shots from this evening. I managed to stretch the road out a few more feet. I think I have about 75' of road now so it's getting more fun. Hills, corners and a bridge. It's a good start!

Videos to follow!


















Thanks for following along!

Get your popcorn out folks...... I can see Reg building a RC Disney land in the near future! .... Better yet, get your plane tickets! We're going to the island!

Funny how things look so much more scale when there isn't a condo or curb in the background eh?
