A clever man, Mr Mitchell, he's really enriched the hobby.

[@khrisabuid6631]

Excellent, with tips that normally you are not told or advised!

[@Brinkly1000]

He really is a master and very good at explaining how to 'do it'. Thank you Malcolm!

[@P61guy61]

Hi Malcolm, enjoyed seeing you again! Imagine my surprise as your face popped up on my iPad with the title indicating the purpose of the Video! I had wondered if you were still building and if you were still at Marhamchurch.
Hope all else is OK. I don’t ‘ model railway ‘ any more.Dismantled all and still have bits and pieces. Did build a model ship , one of the Italian kits San Felipe. I’ll send a picture.Enjoyed your Video,as usual you make it all look so easy.

Amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for posting this video. You have made the rolling of boilers and fire/smokeboxes an easy task. So there is no need to anneal any boiler parts even if the kit instructions say you need to?
Who paints and lines your locos for you? The finish on them is superb.

Suppose a foot through the ceiling would be a clue.
