EZdays,
Do those cacti ever get infested with spiders? When I was a kid we had cactus planted around basement windows, they pretty much are still thriving here in Ohio. They bloom on occasion and have really short fine needles that are very painful and hard to remove.
Warm but very windy here at the moment.
Got my book on scratch building Locomotives, the sample project used to teach the skills in the book is an OO gauge J15 which is an 0-6-0 type locomotive, If I can find suitable wheels here in the US will build the loco in S gauge and scale. Not ready to give it a shot yet as I have only read a few chapters so far and I am having to do an English to English translation now and then, such as a piercing saw(jewelers saw) and torch(flash light). Anyway the bare minimum of tools required are easy to get here from hardware store and surplus catalogs, how ever driving wheels for steamers I need to find a local source or maybe scavenge them from basket case trains
Not sure I would want to place an international order by mail or even online. But I am enjoying the book and look forward to building some small S gauge locos some day.
