Here we go again guys. New contest. The prize is an N scale starter trestle kit in wood. As you can see in the pictures in Mskimmers album, the trestle bents are already built for you. This is an introduction to craftsman building and will give you a little challenge and a lot of fun. Now for the contest. Simply guess the correct amount of Q-tips that I stuffed into the Bachmann On30 boxcar without going over the correct amount. This contest will end at midnight ebay time on the 15th of October. Closest number wins. Guess as many times as you like. A tie will be decided by the first posting time. Go ahead and ask any questions you have. I'll tell you anything but the correct number. Have fun! TheContestFadda

My go for the first time this time 249, what's a Q tip anyway. I could probably do with a tressle on my new layout, when I get started that is. ]:)

Pete did you snip the ends off the Q tips or are these the full 2 1/2" versions?

barrysfp45 · ‎09-30-2007

OK so now I know what a Q tip is, we call them cotton buds, I suppose I should have looked at the photos before I made a guess, still looks like it may be in that ball park anyway. ]:)

Gene, Those are the original 2-1/2" double ended Q-tips, totally unaltered. Barry, Q-tip is just one brand name for those cotton ended swabs. Great for cleaning out your ears and substitute paint brushes in an emergency. B-)

I can't use them for my ears, they give me headaches as soon as I put them in my ears, I use a bobby pin, I do know the emergency paint brush also good for applying solder flux, ]:)
