... Hi Phil/all, One suggestion for those using both sizes may be to use 1/8" axles with 1mm ends, and to sleeve the ends with tubing to bring the diameter...
Hi Brian In theory you are right. But 2 things:- 1) Stainless is very tough to cut and will quicly blunt your jewllers saw. You could you an abrasive disk but...

I purchased my Masterchassis last year but as yet haven't ued it in anger. On Saturday at Watford I purchased the additions to set wagon/coach wheels for 7mm...
Hi Robin From your description I am guessing you are changing scales. The fact you have 1/8* sections on your mock axles, means you have 4mm axles, and you say...
I think I understand now. When I bought it at Warley last year I aimed to use it both for 4mm scale(18.83) and S7. From what you've said just now I need to...
Hi, my Masterchassis is making its debut and I wondered if anyone has any experience of using Alan Gibson hornblocks? With there only being the fence and no...

I work in 4mm, and I too have used happily the High Level ones. I've also used MJT and Kean Maygib. All seem to work, but it is important to leave enough...

Hi Frank The screws you talk about that are used to A) lock the sliders in position while setting up the chassis, and B) fix the Rolling roads in place. They...
