hornbyandbf3fan Posted September 1, 2013 Author Share Posted September 1, 2013 Are all the main buildings going to be scratchbuilt or are they going to be kitbashes. Hopefully scratchbuilt, sorry for the late reply. There's going to be a youtube update later outlining some future plans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CourthsVeil Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Sorry, but this makes me nauseatic ! Is it really sooo diffcult to use a tripod ? Asks Armin . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornbyandbf3fan Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 Sorry, but this makes me nauseatic ! Is it really sooo diffcult to use a tripod ? Asks Armin . I can use a tripod but the layout is only small and it was just a general video so I wasn't concentrating on any particular point. I'll see about using a tripod next time but nobody else has complained. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Hornbyandbf3fan I re-watched it I personally don't have a problem, I don't think a tripod is need, panning slower will probably cure Armin's problem. Armin Don't forget he is young yet and does not have as deep pockets as some of us. For him the cost of a tripod would be better spent on the layout. If a tripod was required a bamboo stick or a broom handle would do the job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twright Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Or you could rest your arms against the baseboard or a higher table - that's what I do. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornbyandbf3fan Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 I do have a tripod which I'll use, but a tripod does restrict me. I have tryed to work on panning slower whilst doing updates bu I've only started doing them again after a long break from them. Hopefully I'll get back to slowing down the panning but when making a video there's so many things to concentrate on! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I agree we do two or three videos for everyone we post, when you re run them you think ouch did i really say that or pause so long between words, hehe. Even the finished and posted ones leave a lot to desire. You are doing fine, I find it lovely seeing you learn and expand your knowledge. Don't worry people rarely criticise for the sake of it, they are merely pointers, which it is up to you whether you take them forward. As time goes on you will find often contradictory information and advice, you just need to use what work's for you. Information is freely given, and you should never feel obliged to use it.

hornbyandbf3fan Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 The amount of times I say ermmm... and then cut the video and have to edit it later! I'll use a tripod next time and see how it turns out. Hopefully better as I'll have something to focus on! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twright Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) You could edit several videos together with a fixed camera and you just pointing at them thus eliminating the wobble/fast panning. Edited September 3, 2013 by Twright Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelson Jackson Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 After watching the video again, I personally don't see anything wrong with it. I use an iPad stand with the help of a screwdriver to prop up the iPad to achieve different angles. Works for me, LOL. Sorry for dragging the thread off topic more.

hornbyandbf3fan Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 The baseboard has been reinforced and a 2 foot long fiddle yard extension. The extension on one end. The new supports and fiddle yard are held on with bolts and wing nuts The new supports. A busy time at the yard as BR 4MT 75033 has arrived to fetch it's train whilst Ivatt 2mt 6404 waits in an empty siding. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelson Jackson Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Looks brilliant, the extra fiddleyard will get you lots more operating potential as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornbyandbf3fan Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 Looks brilliant, the extra fiddleyard will get you lots more operating potential as well. Thanks and yes it will. It's brilliant as I can have my 4mt or black 5 arrive with a short train (4 or 5 wagons long) and then depart with another short train. I need some more wagons though. I was thinking of making a Parkside Dundas LNER 12 ton lowfit. Ideal for the tractor in the picture 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelson Jackson Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Yeah go for it, if you make a wagon, you feel really proud of it when someone at the exhibition says "who built that". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks and hopefully that'll start soon when the basboard is completed and point motors fitted. It's turning more into a normal yard layout at the moment LOL but i can operate it either way, especially with the new fiddle yard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
