A long weekend means plenty of time to do modelling and learn new techniques. Have you read this week's tips? If not, here they are:
- What is a pin vice?
- How long do I shake my paint for?
- How do I apply static grass?
- How to remove super glue?
- Do I need a respirator?
You can also access all the articles by clicking here.
The warmer weather is here. There are leaves on the trees and the evenings are getting lighter. So how about making some trees? Simply get some armatures and foliage and you can "spruce" up your layout. All these are suitable for all scale layouts.
Keep those locos and rolling stock oiled and greased and in tip-top condition. There is nothing worse than a sticky motor and squeaky wheels.
So, for smooth running and less wear and tear on those gears and bearings, we recommend oiling them every few months. Use a foam cradle to avoid damaging anything when servicing.
Send us an email or give us a call to check availability or to reserve anything, whatever scale you model in. As usual, if we do not have in stock what you are looking for, we will order it for you and you will get it fast (usually within a week if the manufacturer has it in stock). We place weekly orders with most suppliers.
Remember, you can park for free for one hour on the High Street. So no excuse not to come and visit us!
Upstairs Downstairs is open Tuesday to Saturday 10am till 4.30pm and Sunday 1pm till 4pm. We are closed only on Monday.
