Packing for Warley
It's nearly Warley weekend and I'm busy packing Owen's Bridge up for the BRM stand.
With the fragile wooden bridge out front, I don't want to chuck the layout in the back of the car without some protection so it's now got a wooden cover. Just in case I can't remember what's in there, I've stenciled the layout name on the top in a suitable military style.
To make the stencil, I printed out the name in an appropriate font on a sheet of paper and cut out the letters with a sharp knife. The paper was then stuck to the woodwork with masking tape and then painted by splodging emulsion around with some coarse sponge - actually an old fishtank filter.
I think it looks pretty good and best of all I'll know which way around the box goes over the layout. Anything for a quick getaway at the end of the show!
Now, as well as the layout, there is space for a few older projects on the stand. Anyone got any they'd like me to bring along?
