Re: Finish issues
Eric,
Remember those hot, muggy days of summer when you walked out of the air conditioned house and your glasses fogged? The same may have happened when you brought the 50 degree models into the 70+

Allen, the model looks excellent. It is almost a dead ringer for the H-70-2 class on Southern Pacific. Any chance some of the bodies will be for sale or trade?

Re: Shipping Fish In Barrels
in the UK the brine used for preserving fish in a barrel was actually just salt and the water present in the fish turned it to brine. A good fish wife (herring gutter) could gut between 2 and 3 fish

Re: UP HK-50-3 Ballast Hopper
Unfortunate about the trucks, but you may have used 100 ton trucks, which have a 5-10 wheelbase.
A 50 ton truck has a 5-6 wheelbase with 33" wheels.

I believe I am done with the fine tuning of this 3D resin printed car. I spent yesterday adding the final under frame details that I can make out in the pictures. I know I missed a few things that are

Re: Finish issues
Here in TN, it’s minerals in the water, mostly limestone. I always use distilled water. No detergent.
Thanks!

Re: Finish issues
Some of the new ultra-thin decals come with instructions not to use anything but water for placement. I found out why the hard way. These decals also have a tendency to curl, so you have to slide them

Re: Finish issues
Or SET displaces water and fixes the decals in place and SOL fuses them to the surface by basically melting the film to bond it to the surface..

Re: Finish issues
I think adding detergent goes back to the days before decal setting solutions were available, and water was the only way to apply decals. The detergent acts as a surface tension reducing agent so
