Nope...I don't do tons.little here and there over the years.

My point is, a pound here, a pound there and pretty soon you have a ton.

First there were suitcase nukes... now we have suitcase model trains..

Do an inventory on the price of the pieces in that setup. Years go by a few bucks here and a few there ..... come add it up.

True, but I spend a lot of time at train shows going thru junk boxes finding $1-$5 projects. And no $1000+ steam engines either. And out of all the wood for the layout and shelves, only bought one sheet of plywood. Everything else was scraps

I owned and used that very same McCulloch chain saw for a number of years. 48" rotating bar, 1/2" chain, gear reduction, removable handle at the front of the bar, massive bumper spikes. It was a beast.

I gave everything away some years ago and had to buy a new train for this layout. I only bought one, and it was used and a cheapie. I just bought the train to justify building the layout. It's the diorama I'm after. A town, a farm, a lake with waterfalls, mountains with tunnels, and a few bridges, one being a wooden trestle. I have an idea, but I design as a go alone. I did cars like that years ago, my car, my world, my end result.
I don't finish the body work or paint. I design and fabricate, you finish it. Smaller, different media this time, same result, my world. I always say, you don't have to like it, but you have to admire the work involved.

That is what a real estate agent is marketing for the old Clayt Johnson Chrysler/Dodge dealer in Ridgetown, Ont. Nobody buying it because of price and ground cleanup
