Kurt, you are quite humble but after looking this thread, your turntable thread, and your boxcar thread (especially the turntable and boxcar ones) you should SERIOUSLY consider writing articles for Model Railroader and/or Model Railroad Craftsman. Not only do you have exceptional scratchbuilding skills but you have a clear, easy to read writing style. Writing articles would not only be a minor source of income but your wisdom would inspire a lot more modelers.
Omaha Road Man, I am glad you liked my threads. I learned to do manuals as a technical writer years ago (it might still show in my turntable thread). I decided against working in this job, because it can get really boring. The threads here are not meant to be tutorials, I just want to show what I am doing – sometimes going into it more deeply (the turntable thread), when I feel like it.
