Moggs Eye Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Hello Ben, Cheers for your post, I hadn't realised Genesis had stopped making those ramps/cradles. I have never been able to find enough information on them to do them satisfactorily. I do intend to return to the Warwells at some point as I now have a lot more info to hand, so I shall consider these. Glad to hear the wagons are generating interest, I have never seen any of my OO gauge designs running on a exhibition layout that I haven't been operating. Can I ask the name of your layout, and if you have any photos please? Regards, Wild Boar Fell Hi, I have 1 of your side loading containers, 3 x PFAs working in two mixed consists and a Warflat on the way, that will probably be loaded with a FV432 until I can sort out a cradle for the Warrior I've made. The layout is called Cottleston, but unfortunately amongst all the poctures I have there isn't one with the PFAs on it. I'll try and rectify that the next time I get it out, it's boxed up at the moment while I work on its successor. Cheers, Ben. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down_Under Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Hi Wild Boar Fell, I will be putting in an order for a couple of 4mm Scale Warwells very soon. I am not sure what the demand would be like, but have you considered making a few of the components for a non-self propelled crane, based on the Warwell Chassis? Such as those here? http://paulbartlett.zenfolio.com/brtwinjibcrane http://paulbartlett.zenfolio.com/brtwinjibcrane/h7d67e60#h1b6d8c30 I was thinking basic parts like cab, boom/jib etc, with some of the other parts left to the modeller to add (handrails, wires, hooks etc)? I for one would be keen for some parts, not sure if anyone else out there is? I thought perhaps it would complement the R&R recovery crane, and makes use of some existing products Many thanks, Happy New Year! James Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Boar Fell Posted January 4, 2015 Author Share Posted January 4, 2015 Hello James, Thanks for your post, I did originally consider producing these as a kit when I first designed the warwells. However I stopped it when I couldn't find sufficient information on them. I still intend to 'Retool' the Warwells at some point as they were my first kit and I reckon I could improve them (thanks in part to me now having a copy of some works GA's for these that show the rivet detail amongst other details), at this point I will consider which of the Warwell derivatives it is worth producing (such as the cranes, and the two versions of bolster wagons etc). I shall post on here any progress I make. Regards, Wild Boar Fell 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Boar Fell Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) To anyone who has one of my cranes on order (Unless placed since the beginning of this year), you should hopefully have received an email about them today. Batch 3 will be ready to ship this coming weekend. For anyone who wants to see some of the projects covered in this thread, built to a higher standard than I have: here are a few current builds to look at.

Wild Boar Fell Posted January 20, 2015 Author Share Posted January 20, 2015 Quick question regarding the Manchester Waste Containers, Why would they be running through Northampton? https://www.flickr.com/photos/trevor-plackett/15310661608/in/pool-1093237@N25 Also interesting to note that they are loaded on FEA-F's Regards, Wild Boar Fell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vonzack Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I know they come through York quite often and sit waiting in the yard for an hour or two. They seem to run KFAs with the odd FEA-B mixed in. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

virginhst539 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Went out and had a look today as it stops at the local for a crew change. The consist is mostly KFA wagons but there was one FEA-B in the middle of the set. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deltic Man Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Okay as promised, something new (sort of) A modified design of my PDUK Chassied PXA bogie box that I abandoned about a year back. Now its back but with integral sides and a more solid chassis (and cheaper). I am hoping to have a rake of these (with some scratch built JNA's and the printed sheerness PXA/JXA's) running for the debut of our new club layout 'Arley Dale' at the Warrington Show (Shameless Plug) in October. For the show these will be running on off the shelf Bachmann Y25 bogies instead of my printed GP25's which they should have. I also still need to have a crack at buffers for these. Body 20140910_224143.jpg Chassis 20140911_212801.jpg Both 20140911_213220.jpg For comparison https://www.flickr.com/photos/55938574@N03/10024752566 Also by swapping the chassis I will be able to build some more JNA's (GERS 4400) too. Whether I will be able to produce the PDUK PXA Steel hoods remains to be seen. http://paulbartlett.zenfolio.com/pdufcoilpxa/h22811c5c#h22811c5c Wild Boar Fell Hi wild boar Are these available yet for purchasing?

Wild Boar Fell Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 Hello Nik, Unfortunately these are not yet available. A few weeks ago I mentioned that some drawings had arrived, these are for my next main (Kit) project, which will follow the PHV hoppers. The below wagons are next in the drawing queue after work for a client. But can anyone work out what they are? Regards, Wild Boar Fell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Boar Fell Posted February 10, 2015 Author Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) For anyone interested, my cranes are now available directly through my website, as I believe I have contacted everyone who placed a pre-order. (2 of each type are currently available). Close John, but no cigar. Regards, Wild Boar Fell Edited February 10, 2015 by Wild Boar Fell 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
knobhead Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 My take on a Cordon DD4 using Wild Boar Fell's 3D print. The material really lends itself to butchering, flexible, yet strong and fun to work with. Regards, Stefan 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Storey Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Hi WBF - I have sent this query to your website contact page, but in case anyone else is interested: I have ordered your Sheerness Steel PXA wagon skeleton and bogies/buffers, but the link page says I need 12.6mm disc wheels. I cannot find 12.6mm, only 12 or 14 mm. Is this an error, or does 12.6mm exist somewhere please? thanks Mike Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Boar Fell Posted March 5, 2015 Author Share Posted March 5, 2015 Hello Everyone, In light of recent price rises by Shapeways, and a recent announcement regarding a RTR model of the same prototype, no more of my R&R 45t Breakdown Crane kits will be produced. I don't think I could justify increasing the kit by a further £15+ to cover the new WSF pricing structure. I will also be contacting Bachmann shortly to offer my resources and assistance with the development of their RTR Model. If anyone is still interested I have a very small stock of the kits left in both LNER (2) and SR (2) flavours (Although I do have a spare GWR Match wagon so can convert one to GWR).

steve shorrock Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Hi Wild Boar Fell, I was wondering if you had any laser cut KTA ends left for sale I need enough to do 3 wagons, if you have please could you let me know how much they would be, Cheers Steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
