Where are the pipes from?

I think they are real pipes, he has just shrunken them....somehow.

They are rather nice, aren't they?

Terrific work Cheeks. As much as I want to see it finished I suggest you keep with the patient approach as it is paying dividends.

Oooooh, cracking!

Makes me think of that rub-a-dub where we went to lunch Thursday before BLAM. The Windsor? A proper Victorian establishment, that.

I heard his twin did all the work on this one.

Absolutely stunning, I can't wait to see this finished, but as Bago said don't rush it.

Thanks chaps

Colin & Mason, the soil pipe junctions and fittings are from a company called Forty-Third, all I had to do was connect them together with 1/8" Evergreen plastic rod.

I was worried that 1:43 would look too big but it seems to work well. You can get fittings for 3/32" pipes too if you want something smaller. I bought some of their street lamps as they had the 'swan neck' style I've been after, again I was worried they would be too big but they scale up well in my opinion. Here's a link:

In the meantime I'll follow the advice of the wise old men and take my time with this build

. I'm toying with the idea of curtains, hmmmmmmm...........

When it's finished, would you embiggen it for me? I could do with another decent pub round here to spend my hard-earned miniatures money in

Fabulous attention to detail...

Thanks again chaps.

I've just ordered some more bits from Forty Third so I'll let you know how they scale up.

Have managed to do a bit more work on the pub and I'm hoping to start putting the structure together over the weekend.

Time to bug me 'ol mucker, bestest mate in the whole world Svennn to make me some signs soon

The drainpipes look really good. Nice chunky cast iron looking!
