how about a Oklahoma,AR,MO,KS,TX,+IA GTG thread?

[Dolmar Junkie]

Good morning! It is cold out, and I started the stove yesterday evening since I was gone all day, and though it got hot enough to actually deform my combustion air intake (I put a stove pipe sleeve over it when I noticed it), the house never got above 67˚. Doing my best to use up that elm I split up.

Model train show this Saturday at the Toyota dealership. I might take Emerson, along with printouts of stories of his adventures in "Old Kansas."

Is a model train show similar to a swap meet? Is this one a bigun? The reason I ask is because I have quite a bit of post war Lionel stuff that my mother bought for me in the late 70's and have thought about getting an appraisal, just to see .
I have seen the Texas special engine's go for a pretty penny and luckily I didn't like those as much as the cast iron smokers when I was young, so they retain that like new in box appeal.

It's national make a primate smile day, give him a banana, he'll appreciate it...

I get all my stuff from Springfield Leather Company. They have online ordering capabilities. They have a discount club you can join for $25. I think. I joined and the discounts paid for the club fee by my 2nd visit. I would recommend a diamond awl.

Gracias, are they actually located in Springfield? Do they have a showroom? I'll check it out, and order the Diamond...

Yep. If you're familiar with Spfd, they are on Glenstone just north of Sunshine.

A few tested clean and compete as "un attached".

Daria klishina was who I was referring to.

If drugs made her look like she does, bring on more drugs!!!

Blondie’s father delt Lionel from ‘46 to about ‘60. Consequently, we ended up with his collection plus the American Flyer I collected in the early ‘80s. (When you could still find some at garage sales.)

Our estate sale will be a madhouse.[emoji23]

Fighting weight Mike..
Jumpers gotta get lean to be competitive.



Runs like a gazelle.
Jumps like one too.

Good lookin stuff, I need to come up with some type of display, operational set up consumes too much space and crated up offers no value.

Do you reckon that it would be uncouth to go ahead and have my estate sale, so as to reap the benefits while still beneficial?

Hindsight being 20-20, I highly recommend you do.[emoji849]

Daughter is going to have a huge mess to clean up here.

As the father of 4boys I can say that just imagining dividing my treasure's (see:junk) up,based on their needs and personality is daunting to say the least,much harder than collecting all of it.

Unrelated,
I had high hopes in your ability/connections to assist me in finding a home for the C3side glass that I had listed in the Christmas thread and have been hauling around since the late 80's.

Thank you for your service, may have told you that before (titanium in the cranium) but the exclusive club you belong to I believe that all members should be thanked on a regular basis.

 

[67L36Driver]

I don’t know about C3 but 63-67 is LOF and dated. [emoji848]

Should I keep running this 3120 with 3 of 4 teeth to the clutch. Assume teeth are part of the crank shaft.

That's the oiler gear... it spins on the crankshaft and is driven by the clutch. I don't know how you lost a tooth but it should be ok.

 

[Douglas Ostrander]

Ok. I feel stupid now. I just changed oiler in the other 3120 in Dec. The clutch outer housing broke from the part that holds the sprocket. Took out the bearing too.
Picture is what it should look like.

All I know is what is on the flyer. I didn't even know there was a local club. Probably not a really big one, but one never knows.

I hope that LOF is something that is in the urban dictionary and used by all the kids these days, because I am struggling to figure that one out.

Not sure, but I think it means "Lots of fun". But I'm guessing.
In my younger days it stood for "Lube, oil and filter".

 

[Dolmar Junkie]

I ran thru all of those and more, line of fire, limit on freakiness ? Ain't as smart as I was a hopin...
