Telephone lines and figure painting.

Stephen tied-off the pole end of the three phone lines and superglued them in place. When set, the excess thread was trimmed off. A trial 'snagging' of a line caused the magnet to pull off its bracket without any damage. A success.





The issue of keeping the three magnets and lines from tangling when the pole was stored off the layout had been discussed and Stephen had unearthed a length of window blind control rod. This was cut into 3 and tested. Once happy it served its purpose, the three lengths were glued together and a base fitted.



Geoff spent the day cleaning-up and painting a batch of 3D printed figures.
