02/10/2025 00:21:03 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | shite, it puts up the whole page, scroll down and click to expand |
02/10/2025 00:20:23 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Try that video link |
02/10/2025 00:20:22 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | Picture posted by RoninID: https://worldofdecay.blogspot.com/2013/11/the-puget-sound-coast-everett-washington.html |
02/10/2025 00:19:59 | S-Trains | [traindavid] | even copying & passting the entire link it's still "not found" |
02/10/2025 00:19:48 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | https://youtu.be/IArF7AeMMqc |
02/10/2025 00:16:59 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | not nearly as stout as the meccano |
02/10/2025 00:16:47 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | the actual ones used were just timber tripods |
02/10/2025 00:15:22 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Meh, last part of the link wont post |
02/10/2025 00:15:06 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | https://www.brightontoymuseum.co.uk/w/images/Meccano_Giant_Block-Setting_Crane_(Meccano_Super_Models_4).jpg |
02/10/2025 00:14:38 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | and the waves roll huge logs right up the slope and onto the tracks |
02/10/2025 00:14:09 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | there is one stretch they built at repose, about 37 degrees |
02/10/2025 00:14:00 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | https://www.brightontoymuseum.co.uk/w/images/Meccano_Giant_Block-Setting_Crane_(Meccano_Super_Models_4).jpg |
02/10/2025 00:13:49 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | and the rough rocks break up the wave action |
02/10/2025 00:13:47 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | I always wanted to build the Meccano one but my set wasn’t big enough |
02/10/2025 00:13:24 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | a lot cheaper to build |
02/10/2025 00:13:14 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | now they just dump riprap which is what they should have used in the first place |
02/10/2025 00:12:31 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | that sucked the stones right out of the wall |
02/10/2025 00:12:23 | S-Trains | [traindavid] | Shouldn't I meant |
02/10/2025 00:12:20 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | but good old Ma Nature could still pound them with storms |
02/10/2025 00:11:57 | S-Trains | [traindavid] | Well that should be too shocking, after all the waves are really powerful |
02/10/2025 00:11:41 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | they used a 3 legged mini crane to pick up and place them in the wall |
02/10/2025 00:11:24 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Oh yeah, the old seawalls had block setting cranes built just for the job |
02/10/2025 00:11:11 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | Aye, mateys! |
02/10/2025 00:11:09 | S-Trains | [traindavid] | Three Tons! yikes |
02/10/2025 00:10:44 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | Chooch guy was convinced they were O scale |
02/10/2025 00:10:37 | S-Trains | [traindavid] | Uh oh, were losin' em! Oh well, it's 9 pm here, so it must be late there! |
02/10/2025 00:10:28 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | and the |
02/10/2025 00:10:15 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | so a real sea wall rock can be up to 3 x 6 x 2 feet or about 3 tons |
02/10/2025 00:07:33 | S-Trains | [traindavid] | BTW. you can get a copy of the bible written in "Pirate Talk" it's pretty wild, a friend of our has a copy. |
02/10/2025 00:07:14 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Paaarghates? |
02/10/2025 00:06:26 | S-Trains | [traindavid] | Ah yes, I thought that might be it, but I didn't trust myself. |
02/10/2025 00:06:04 | S-Trains | [traindavid] | Ron, that'sonly on Sept 18 (talk like a pirate day). |
02/10/2025 00:05:52 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | construction of the real sea wall |
02/10/2025 00:05:44 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | but I had the dimensions from an article specifically describing the |
02/10/2025 00:05:17 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | oops a k not a c |
02/10/2025 00:05:02 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | I could not convince the guy that the rock sizes I used were prototype |
02/10/2025 00:04:44 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | Yes, Zamak |
02/10/2025 00:04:40 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | when I did the GN sea wall masters for Chooch Enterprizes |
02/10/2025 00:04:24 | S-Trains | [fahrwud] | I don’t aim for details too much, but try for an overall effect. |
02/10/2025 00:04:11 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | makes you want to talk like a pirate |
02/10/2025 00:04:03 | S-Trains | [RoninID] | aargh |
