The larger size seems to be available fairly easily. I’ve never seen a piece of the smaller gauge before. It was luck I came across it when browsing a sellers listings. Maybe an old mine might have some laying about.Now you have piqued my interest. I wonder if Queensland Rail would miss a few inches of railway from their Savannahlander line.
The lighter size is very common on the sugarcane tramways along the Queensland coast but that's an almost 350km round trip for me from the farm. I'll see if I can contact one of the sugarmill engineers to find out if he can cut a piece of light rail for me.
So a coffee run in Australia. I drove that far to pick up my shaving mirror. Granted it was from the RMS Queen Mary. if you can grab few, and defray the fuel cost by selling them on.
I'm surprised no-one has asked, and you must have anticipated someone would.
So I'll bite. What does a shaving mirror from the Queen Mary look like?
Didn't actually think about it, more of a demonstration the distances we will travel to get something in a country this big. The trip for the mirror was about 270km and the speakers about 330km.I'm surprised no-one has asked, and you must have anticipated someone would.
I have similar but smaller and vintage. I found that my BB side doesn't need any slurry, just water. For the coticule side, I use soluble oil (6%) with water. Works well for me but every natural has its own personality.Arrived this week after 4 weeks wait to get through Australian customs:
Plan on using for 3 - 8k progression on the BBW side by diluting the slurry and coticule side just for finishing with water only
Glad to see them going to good use @rbscebu
Blackbird Day!
