Here are three cars I just got done with recently, one bulk head flat and two re-purposed pulp wood cars. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] David
This is for my Dad, his nickname was Sonny. I didn't notice it was the name on it until after I got it. And he never was a mechanic, he was a...
Well this is my CF-7 with a little bit of detailing and weathering done. [IMG] [IMG] David
I like those but I have a question for you. Can they be split, as in 4 + 4 for one set of wire and 4+4 for a different set of wires? I mean like...
I am thinking about another project. To me it will be a big one because it will be a lot of scratch building that I have never done before. I am...
Well I didn't have anyone tell me any different so I just took a wag and thought it would work and it did. So this is how I fixed my problem with...
I haven't done the weathering yet. It comes apart at the walkway and maybe I was wrong but I notice that quite a few of the handrail ends were not...
I have a Silver series Dash 8-40bw that came DCC ready. I just had to take the shell off and dropped in a TCS decoder. Runs great. David
I have an Atlas Silver Dash 8-40BW and am having a bit of trouble with the shell on it. I had taken it off once before and installed a TCS decoder...
I can't remember what the equation is right now and haven't looked for it but I think the number is either .87 or .087 to get it down to HO...
That is where I am asking myself the questions. Will adding the weight cause a problem, that I am not sure of. I see people talking about...
Ok this might be one of those obvious questions but I need to ask it any way to make sure. If the weight of each car is done with the 1 oz plus...
One thing I forgot to add in the build post. When you get the bridge cut and in place you will need to tweak it just to make sure that it falls...
I put the complete build and wiring in the How To section. it is here:...
On with the drop down build. Then I mounted the roadbed in place in one piece over the cut then took a razor and followed the angle cutting the...
This is going to be rather picture heavy so bear with me. This is going to be the full build of a drop down entry I made for my around the room...
Since I was asked to put up more details on the drop down I will start a thread in the "How To" section for it. David
Thats what I did. I cut the drop end base at a slight angle then applied the roadbed, then cut the track and lined it up. I have two tracks across...
I have almost the same exact table layout in my train room but mine is 10 X 14 and 33" wide. I'm over 6' tall so it works that wide for me. I made...
Is it two lanes in each direction or one in each ? I found these while looking for some I am going to need soon....
