In real life 18 inches is extremely sharp. If your model is a truly detailed one of good quality then it just might be that it won't do 18 inches, like the real one. :)

I did [and do] something similar to what you did. I make fullsize templates but I don't bothe gluing it to the foam [maybe I should :) ] Anyhow, I use white glue. I has always worked for me. BUT there is a special way to do it so that it actually sticks and does not pool up on you and leave a...

Tortoise. :)

On a double mainline for a big RR it would have a dip in the middle to pool and drain water. For a double mainline on a small or poor RR it would have a lot less ballast and therefore it would have a patche of ground between the ballast for the grass etc to grow. So if your RR is a big high...

Mine is TOTALLY mde up. Even the story behind it :D LOL Hopefully soon I will post the story of my real [imaginary] railroad :)

What's to be mad about? I mean ou are better then me in design, in track laying, scenery, tutorials and water and soon to be in scratch building. What's there to be mad about? SHEESH. :curse::cry: :rolleyes: LOL :D On suggestion about going the scratch building way. Start small [you will ignore...

Well the last time I was here was back in feb 2nd. LOOONNNGGG time. Since then I have gotten a hard drive failure [MBR was destroyed]. Then I got a new computer that didn't work argh. Oh well. I am back guys. No one missed me I see though [no private posts or emails asking if I was ok, but oh...

About the only diesels I like are the one my uncle Jack use to drive and the Sante Fe Both f7's. My uncle drove the shark nose [I think] for CN.

I just found out that Zellers, here in Vancouver anyhow, is selling a rotary tool with some extras for $14. It will not be high powered but it will do the job. I have a dremel and a cheap one. The cheap one will bog down a bit when pressured, but for small jobs it is great. I don't know if...

I knew you had some more pics in you LOL. Keep up the good work. :)

You know that you can always do your layout in sections and add them as you go. Like the yard now, [tough part so do it early and get it out of the way or wait till you have more experience]. Or do the mainline run now. Either way, look at it in pieces rather then as a whole and it will not be...

Looking good as usual Steve. You are becoming a veteran now :D

hav Hmmm. I already have over 200 pictures in just the four parts I have redone already. I am nit sure how many more I would need to please the 'eye candy' crowd. And most of them are thumbnails because the pictures are large. In the parts I have redone I took the pictures off of photobucket...

Um er ah what? Where do I add this? I use google pages and all I have to do is add text and the pictures. I don't know anything about html sorry. :S Where do I put it? Do I add it to the link? HHHEEELLLPPP. LOL I really don't know that stuff. I am more a hardware guy then software. Thanks a...

As I use firefox and not buggy IE I didn't think about that. [Firefox just opens a new tab]. So sure, if you can show me how to make IE run better go for it. Maybe it will become IE friendly although I hope people change to Firefox if only to protect themselves :D The font size is called...

I am redoing my website. So any comments NOW would be nice. I have already redone four of the tutorials in the model RR section. I am hoping that putting the pictures on the site instead of having to go elsewhere will make things easier for everyone. Please visit and enjoy.
