I can't help but think that a main problem remains largely unresolved and it's one that afflicts the current state of things as well. Namely the tenuous connection of rail to slide chairs, I know that lost wax brass ones are available but at a cost and Bill Bedford did some etched brass ones in 4mm. However it is still problematic. The thought that has occurred to me is to have some proper etched brass ones or at least the slide part, the chair part of the existing ones on offer can still be used.
I know there is the Masterbits option in 4mm scale but isn't what I really want
So I have quickly designed some in Turbocad and hopefully by the end of the year they will be a physical reality. Of course they will be of a 2 bolt GWR variety. The chair parts can be obtained from the Modelu resin prints as well as Templot in the future? I could do some 4 bolt ones if needed?
