now i am seriously wondering what you are up to dave with that big base of yours...will it be a scenic base for something or will you mke a scratchbuilt something on that? i am anxuious to know^^...and with the added rivets that thing looks supreme!
as a kid i had lots of stuff of the railroad theme...a whole trian set from playmobil and for H0 a big table in the middle of my room...shame that back then i wasn´t interested in the least in any railroad stuff then...my granddad did all the modeling then...maybe because i wasn´t involved in any making and building it was not interesting for me...just twisting the "go-fasta" switch wasn´t doing it for me...but now the old stuff sure smiles at a different angle to me...shame twice as all stuff is now gone...:(

The Model RR hobby is in danger of dying off with a generation, we must be open-minded enough to learn their Riveting methods!
Dude when he passed I inherited all his model stuff and collectables, storage was a real issue and my sisters "were unable to store anything" so things had to be sacrificed unfortunately and they were the thing.
However they did go to a good home some guy took them who was into model railways, so at least they will be used. 
I have kept all his models and trains still, shame I have no were to display them.

Thanks guys!
@LDD, what scale are the trains? Any good locomotives or roling stock?
If your Grandfather was a hobbyist, he would have wanted another hobbyist to enjoy the stuff, not just dryrot in a box somewhere, he obviously enjoyed them.
What am I up to Vik? I don't really know. I'm just playing around. I have no real plan other thank I was just going to send it to Galorn for mold-making. Maybe cast them in resin for -=]_,-= Members personalized use. I dunno.
I have always been interested with RR layouts, mostly building them. Once it was built though, I think I would get bored with it too, that is why I settled on slooowwwly collecting Lego RR stuff instead, I'd rather have the option of infinite rebuilds if I wanted to

Well it can be a character base if you want it, or a Sentinel, or a hvy weapons team, or just glue it to a building, whatever!

ok..think on this Vik......keep in mind, while a chain would look cool and all, would it cast up well? Or will it cause undercuts and a mess and ruin the whole base?

but it was but a joke, ok?! lol...wouldn´t want to be caught dead with some bling around my neck lol
but in all earnest... i had a thought... and the result...i would like to see the brim of the base flush with the edge... and i imagine the base all done in metallwork... but on the brim nothing...for me i would paint it all flush in metall and be done ...maybe...just maybe a small scroll for the "wielders" name? on second thought... a scroll is not the right thing...more a plate that gets...wait for it...riveteted down to the base^^
