"Did I like it" you said ? No, I flipping loved it !! What a truly remarkable life-like cameo. You're seriously talented. It was intense watching it in case Fred fell . . . just the once !!!
Yes! I like it ,... Thanks for showing such great information. I am a big fan of Fred Dibbnah. He was a talented man. I watched and read about him. I m Badar from Pakistan.
How beautiful , what a special tribute and a masterpiece that displays your personal skills as a model maker. It was a delight to see how it was made, and the final piece with the background looks just like a snapshot of history. Well done to you for such a wonderful creation.
Really enjoyed the video and watching how you constructed the ladders and platforms and listening to Freds commentary. As a Bolton lad myself I did like that 😊 cheers Gary
Thanks to that TV series we all fell for Fred's honest approach to life and it's thanks to yourself we can enjoy little Fred in your wonderful layout. 🚂🚃🚃🚃
Thanks really thank you! It was great fun to make and blend in a bit of Fred's legacy in! Its safe to say you wouldn't catch me up one of those ladders!
@@dinmorejunctionmodelrailway i'll do my best! that last one took 3 times as long time to edit, than it did to make the model so need to get a bit quicker!! Thanks again!
This is the best model video I’ve seen in months Liam. Not only is the end result absolutely superb, the presentation and overall feel of the video was so unique, refreshing, and entertaining. I was glued all the way through. I enjoyed seeing your methods too for weathering as well as applying superglue, which is something I’ve always struggled with. Thanks for a super video. 👍👍👍
Take note: the stairs are half juxtaposed just to make the superior anchor in the chimney, once make it, they are untied to be joined by the male-female union. You can see this clear in the video "Fred Dibnah laddering a chimney part 1" and 2
Hi Liam - Not only interesting but most amusing to watch. Love your sense of humour. Your eye for detail is staggering, which makes you channel so good to watch. Regards Chris
Many Thanks Chris, glad someone gets my humour! It was really enjoyable to build, but I think it took about three times as long to edit the video so glad it was worth it! Cheers Liam
Funny enough, when I watched the first video about you building the chimney, I said to myself "the only bit missing is a tiny Fred Dibnah laddering that thing." As an idea: why not go the extra mile and put the old army surplus landrover in the factory yard, with Donald standing there looking up. "Because, you see, if the man at the bottom disappears, that's when you fall off."
Funny you should say that, I have started to convert a land rover to the short wheelbase red one Fred had with the home made ladder rack. I’ve got distracted doing other things but will get round to it one day! Thanks
Liam, that's a superb video!! Thank you. Fred is an absolute legend, excellent work. I'd love to do something that visually impressive. So enjoyable, will sub for more of this!! Cheers AHJ!!
Hi Liam, Wow! Brilliant modelling mate, it put’s my chimney to shame and I was pleased with that!!! Great detail, not sure I would’ve attempted some of that in N gauge! Brilliant with Fred’s input, well put together mate, I really enjoyed it. Cheers Liam, John
That's a fantastic tribute the to our one and only steeplejack...I dont do heights...so how he did what he did, with sometimes a guinness or two...god bless him... So are you related?? Great vid...
Fred was a legend great model and awesome tribute to Fred
What a stunning bit of modelling and a lovely homage to the man himself.
I have to admit to a bit of vertigo watching the last bit with Fred hanging on for dear life. Excellent!
I could never do that but it’s strangely fascinating watching him do it! Cheers
Fantastic work well done, a fantastic tribute to a great legend fred dibnah
Many Thanks!

Excellent work - now to add Fred's trusty Land Rover at the foot of the chimney...

Many thanks! Apologies for the late replies I'd missed these comments somehow!
Very good. A great tribute to an amazing man. Maybe needs a model of his assistant at the bottom, ready to haul up stuff he needs?
Hi thanks for the comment! Once everything here is fixed done then Donald will be around to help out

Thanks - that’s a bit too detailed for my eyes at model scale!

Excellent video Liam , nicely edited and well explained with a great result . So the answer to your question is YES I DID.
Cheers Kev
Thanks, and sorry its taken so long to reply!
Absolutely brilliant! An unusual item to model & so inspiring
Thanks David, yes I’ve seems few chimneys but not with the scaffolding up!

Many thanks for the kind comment John! Yes it definitely would have been a challenge in N, but on the other hand it could have been much taller!
That's a fantastic tribute the to our one and only steeplejack...I dont do heights...so how he did what he did, with sometimes a guinness or two...god bless him...
So are you related??
Great vid...
haha! no relation at all! Like you, just enjoyed his brand of entertainment - more so the candid real life stuff on chimneys and traction engines.
👍
I have a church on my layout and fred is doing some pointing on the steeple it looks good to me anyway.
Cheers, have you got a pic? Would love to see that! Thanks
