HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOM!!!!:mexwave:
Starter fluid will remove a bunch of that. I have not had 100% success but every little bit helps. As with all aerosol solvents, be sure it is well vented and a respirator is a good plan even outside.Quote:

Birthdays are at the bottom of the forum page. This might not be true for the mobile version of SRP, however.Quote:

Pardon me gents for intruding, but this seems the best place to recognize one of the masters: Tom
Happy Birthday! Hope you aren't here for it tonight.
Never an intrusion WW243. The more the merrier!!Grab an ugly blade and post up your attempts at turning it int something workable once more.Quote:

Mike, aka outback. The anvil just arrived & it is awesome buddy! I was looking at my other piece & they are different. My other piece of railroad track is 4 1/2" tall & the piece outback sent me is 6" tall. The surface where the wheels ride are 2 3/4" on the piece outback sent me & 5/8" thick on the part that is between the base & surface which I guess we can call the spine. On my other one the surface is 2 3/8" & the spine I guess you would call it is 1/2" thick. I'm thinking they don't use that type track anymore like my first one I have which was probably cut from a vintage piece of railroad track used back on the old steam locomotives!
Thank you very much Mike. I will get you back on it.

My Babur's pins & collars came in also & he sent me a piece of what the tag says is genuine new silver! I don't know if he does that with every order or if it is because I was asking about the solver pins. He's a great guy to deal with & I'll leave him an excellent feedback.

Now I have more coming which will be the Cateye ones included both brass & silver. They are just like the ones these guys sell a dozen for $30!
