Needing lights for my Slot track I couldnt find anything that suited my needs since most Model RR stuff has a 50's and earlier look to it. I needed Modern so I dug through the old scrap and parts bins to see what I had to try my hand at building something with a Modern Look to it. I...

:thumb: Way to go Guys!!!..............it was almost like you never missed a beat. This volumes seems to flow nicely out of the last one issue'd. Good Job!!!!

I would go to the slot forum and find some Aurora slot car racing Barriers to bid on..........( cut the Rails off the uprights and hit a few spots here and there with a hot solder iron for bends and dents....... paint them Metal silver followed by an alcohol/Ink wash followed by a shot of...

CCT..........If you ever Drive on a 1/32 digital track..............you will NEVER go back to HO slots. 6 cars on a 2 lane track with Passing tracks (selectable) Power braking etc etc....The scale speeds are almost dead on too. Its a bit spendier than HO.......But way more fun. Ive got a ton...

The Best Looking Grass modelers are using 1 of 2 things. Either A static applicator(which is expensive but produces phenomenal results) Or Silflor.............which can be purchased through Scenic Express Silflor is a bit on the spendy side but it is FRONT OF THE LAYOUT QUALITY.. I...

A bit larger corrugation might help..........sometimes those Boxes of Chocolates have a corrugated piece that goes between layers..............There again.........SCALE..WHAT SCALE ;)

Wow, good stuff Dave. There is a simple way to improve those Box Stock Mass marketed trees. Heki in particular makes a good pine tree and they are cost effective with a box of 100 costing around 20 bucks. They seem a bit bare to me however Heres what I use to improve the looks of...

Ive put off the Logging line until I finish the current project....Digital 1/32 Slot car circuit. The On30 point to point will go on the shelf above it and be built as a Modular layout In easily transportable sections.(most will be 16 x 30 inches) I have room for aproximately 26 running feet...

Alot would depend on scale but you could possibly use some from a Slot car set. Aurora or Tyco in HO scale Scalextric or Ninco for the larger scales. You could maybe even use one simply as a Mold to make one from thinner material like craft foil etc. Good Luck Dave :)

Larry, they are like Dorito's, they'll make more :D :D :D Besides, nobody said racing was a CHEAP Hobby :) My scenery will be a bit differant than the model railroad. Any area's where the potential for scenery contact is even a remote possibilty will be Soft scenery.........They may Look...

Model Railroading will be safe for many years to come..........in fact, nationwide the hobby has grown slow but steady and will continue to do so. Now, If you have extra room and want the best of both worlds, Add a nice Sceniced 1/32 Digital Road racing layout to the mix and soon I'll be...
