    Another great video Paul hope you're well. I know it's not original but what if you bought a cheap mk3 for the wheels they should be in good condition and nobody wants mk3s.

      Hi Lee nice to hear from you mate, glad you like the video and yes I'm well and hope all OK with you? Quite a while ago I bought a Grifter that had mk3 chopper rear wheel on it and allthough they do look the part they are skinnier if that makes sence!!?? I've made the ultimate sacrifice as you will see in next video but it is well worth it and even the result surprised 🤨 even me lol 😂 cheers 🥂

    Great selection Paul , talking of railway layouts my old house I bought a second hand baseboard that could either be 8 x 4 or 16 x2 feet, I had as 16 x2 along one side of my loft then I extended it so it ran all the way around my loft but only 12 inches wide on ply enough space for 2 tracks side by side mounted on the roof joist’s 👍👍

      Hi nicolas glad you like my selection mate, that sounds really good what you had in your loft!! I'm going to start with an 8x4 board and take it from there can't wait to get going allthough it will be a while yet but hopefully will film some purchases on next video, have a great weekend cheers 🍻

    I know what you mean mate yes . I just kept thinking it's such a shame to pilfer from that mk1 grifter and therfore devaluing it but you never know in the future another wheel could come your way and then I suppose you'd put it back on .thanks for your reply and look forward to your next video take care buddy.

      My thoughts exactly Lee I'm just treating it as a loan lol 😂 take care yourself mate, and I know I'm a bit early but have a great weekend cheers 🍻

    Hey paul mate great video lovely to see them all out again and as i have said previously mate well done on that quicksilver its coming together really really nice! I agree far to good for that wheel unfortunately mate. But yee i think switch it with one of the others for now mate and maybe a clean bargain wheel will pop up down the line that you can replace the rough one with. 👍 oddly mate im even looking forward to the trains which is something i never thought i would hear myself say! 🤣 keep up the great work mate and have a great weekend 🍻

      Hi Josh mate yes I've allready taken out a loan lol 😂 and with a bit of tlc and metal polish it's really surprising what you can achieve lol 😂 Glad you're looking forward to the trains mate lol 😂 as I'm looking forward to doing it and will be setting up my test track in a top secret location soon lol 😂 have a great weekend yourself and will hopefully send you some photos soon cheers 🥂

    Great video, try and look out for another rim or even a repo one it’s not hard to rebuild a wheel I’ve done it with no problem. Ade.

      Hi Ade the Grifter wheel is on the chopper as I really didn't have the time to delay the build to much and it really did clean up well and looks so good as you will see on next video, thanks for viewing cheers 🥂
