New from the boonies of Mississippi
« on: May 31, 2018, 03:48:23 AM »
Hi my name is Rod and I live in Mississippi or that is where I get my mail.  My goal is to burn up the roads in my retirement..  Alas my back had other ideals so I am spending my time in the shop.  I like logging stuff steam donkeys (got one)  narrow gauge trains and such.  Noticed today a Mr. Incredible doll,  Hum if only I could find a big blue ox.

Well my donkey is a small one.  It is 1.5 inch scale.  With a 5 inch boiler and 4.5 inch drums.
