Sorry, I need to be more precise :) Since the buildings need to be transported separately when going to an exhibition I need a good way to mount them back on the modules. I believe that I need some kind of base to mount them on and I wonder how you do it? I don't know if anyone could...

How do you make your foundations for buildings on modules that you visit meetings with? Any tip of the day would be highly appreciated :)

I suppose the Greeks have a word for things like this: hubris sign1 But believe me, the safety was high at the event

My good friend Göran from Gothenburg and I did some test about the stability of my scratchbuilt trestle bridge sign1

Last Saturday I was to a meeting to test if my modules were made according to the Fremo standard. As you can see from the picture it did :wave:

Yesterday I was to a meeting where we mixed Fremo-N single and double track You can see more pictures at my website :)

That's what friends are for :)

A little bit late perhaps but an option would be to use a background divider to make two scenarios. One with the action round the loco shed and one with an industrial area.

Gerd, a interesting solution to a common problem. Thank's for sharing :)

I've started to do some rocks... After some painting it looks like this:

Jim, your layout looks great :thumb: I think you have made a excellent work so far and have come a long way with it. What's the overall size of it? How have you made it? And please tell us about your rolling stock. It seems like you have something on the wall :wave:

Crazy but really fun sign1

I use stain with mahogany color. Be sure to not use stain with varnish because cyano glue don't like varnish. I made that mistake and I'm wiser now :)

That sounds like an interesting thought :thumb: In fact that could be the solution to one of my problems :) What type of building do you have in mind?

Thanks for sharing these really inspiring pictures :wave: I love trestle bridges and I'm building one right now...

Looks good and it seems that you've done the best of your spare time. It's always fun to make something from scratch :) As said in previous answers, I also believe the size of the timber is a little bit to wide.

To me it seems like a layout with a lot of shunting possibilities and room enough for some interesting industries that needs wagons on a regularly basis. I would go for a paper mill for instance... It's really impressive with the hand laid track and turnouts :thumb: Good work so far and please...

Good work :) How did you do the weathering of the roof? By the way, I remember the 60's and the band Lovin Spoonfull which had a hit with "Rain on the roof". Those where the days...

I don't believe anyone will laugh at you. I done the same more than once and now I always put a tiny, tiny dot of fluxpaste on the soldering spot before soldering and that do the trick so the problem melting down ties is over :thumb:

Good thinking :) Reliability is good, real good :thumb: There's so annoying to put a loco back to work with a finger due to contact problem. And that always happen when I'm showing friends how good locos I have sign1
