Don't know if this will even actually qualify for this thread or not, and certainly will be pathetic after Bill's (AirSpyder) showing, which I'm blessed to actually have the bandsaw and workshop from him, so I truly know up close and personal how amazing these creations are in real life!!!

I have fabricated a sort of not really prototypical nor scale model of a Harp Switch Stand as the throw machine for the switches on my eventual Fn3 scale outdoor railroad.

Not really all that much in and of itself, but the process by which it was made, and all the fixtures and jigs that I had to build in order to make it, all add up to making this very special to me!
Perhaps I should add that this has equipped me to where I can now build any number of these, and in fact have produced the parts needed to build at least a dozen, which should do me for "Phase 1" of my railroad construction plans.
