Railways Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) I'm currently in the throes of packing everything up to move north after being here 36 years. I've already packed up the pinnies and most pinball stuff for storage until the big day. I've just wrapped and packed the last Railways order for this year and probably until early next year. Enquiries welcome but if I haven't got what you need on hand, apologies. If I have it on hand pick up is welcome but no freight. I currently haven't got the time and resources at the moment. cheers Jeff Edited December 13, 2022 by Railways 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Stu, Amazing how much "stuff" we've accumulated over 36 years . OMG!!!!! I actually started finishing off the odd job here and there and repainting a little under a year ago. 2 hours ago, Cruiser said: All the very best for your move north Jeff, how far north are you going ?? Thanks Brett. Up around the Maitland area. Thats where our daughters and grandkids live. Haven't decided exactly where but our house is on the market and we've had good interest thus far even considering it's Xmas. 2 hours ago, Pop Bumper Pete said: you will need a fleet of moving trucks Thanks Pete. Not far wrong sir. I've already put 10 pins, a jukebox and loads of "stuff" into a storage unit already. Delivered one pin back to a mate at Cardiff this morning. 2 hours ago, Arcade King said: How far north? 🙂 Hunter Valley region. 1 hour ago, bossninja17 said: Good luck with the move.

Railways Posted December 13, 2022 Author Share Posted December 13, 2022 Thanks Michael. I'm very sure we'll survive the change as well as you and Queen of shots have. Pretty sure our paths will cross again and I'll look forward to it. I only hope there is a Roadshow involved . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autosteve Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Gee Maitland is just a stones throw away from the lovely neck of the woods you live at now isn't it?. Shit, traveled further than that for work.😄 Good luck on the move mate. Don't do a hernia or a bulging disc like some idiot that may or may not be typing this to you.🥴 Pinballs definitely gain weight the longer you own them. Not a replacement house yet or haven't found one with a large enough games room?.😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right though that Maitland itself is only 80 minutes from here. Yep, they seem to get heavier as you get older. Old mate Mark and I moved 10 into storage plus a jukebox in the one day and these ol' farts were rooted I'm telling you. Not a games room, thinking more of a shed when the right house comes along.

Gemini2544 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Sheds make a great mancave, Just make sure the main north wall gets some tree shadows on it. They really heat up in Summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll let you know where we end up so you can pop in again if you are heading south. 3 hours ago, Gemini2544 said: Sheds make a great mancave, Just make sure the main north wall gets some tree shadows on it.

Good tip Doug but I think we'll end up with a shed already on the property so I probably won't have a say in that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Railways Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 Just an update but we have bought a property up near Maitland. I now have a 3 year old 6.5 x 7.0 insulated, powered shed with a pebblecrete drive and the house is great but love the shed. It seems I have a NIB game being delivered by Shannon on Tuesday/Wednesday. The rest of the games should be here the day before. BUT. We have a lot of settling in to do before hand let alone some Railways orders to catch up on. Still keen on hosting a set up day but baby steps after living here for 37 years. 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Replay Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 I’d be tempted to epoxy the floor Jeff, I got a kit from Bunnings, easily did my 6x6m with some left over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinoffski Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 It took me years to drop in to see you at the old place.. Will not leave it so long this time. Looks great mate .. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autosteve Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 (edited) Gee, lovely shed mate. I know it's insulated but what an ideal time to double or triple that "R" rating. Just another layer of the foil sarking will double what it is now which from the looks is usually between R2-4.5. Can't forget the roof. Heat rises . Ideal time to go OP on the electricity as well.........Can't ever have to many power points. Love the shed Jeff, you've done well.

My son in law has some left over from his shed 5 months ago that I can have. 2/3rds of the floor will be carpet tiled and the other 1/3rd will be epoxy around the work bench and beer fridge. 6 hours ago, Pinoffski said: It took me years to drop in to see you at the old place..

Yep the insulating is pretty thick and it does have a whirly bird on the roof to evacuate the rising heat plus when the roller door is up and the general access sliding glass door is open there is a nice cross breeze. A lot of the GPO's will have to be converted to 4 outlets and a couple extra added in as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
