  1. You could make them look like re-patched areas!
  2. Have you seen the new GertBot for the Raspberry Pi that can control DCC? http://www.gertbot.com/
  3. Interesting. I have seen a lot better quality prints than that coming off the printer they are using there (Prusa Mendel i2) - which is the same as I am building. I have also seen *VERY* high quality by comparison off some of the more recent printer models... This will be fun! Now where did I put those Z-axis springs...
  4. I just read all through that. Wow. I hope I can get the same sort of quality with my RepRap and PLA... I guess I will find out when I have finished building it!
  5. I may have missed it, but what printer are you using? Have you thought about printing the points/etc rather than milling them?
  6. How do you have block occupancy with the reader though? Is it upon entering/exiting a block, or is it a RFID reader for the length of that block?
  7. Thanks... Guess I won't be heading that way then.
  8. Is it possible to run 2mm fs engines/stock on N gauge track? Looking at starting to build 2mmfs kits up but the only layout would be a nice big N gauge one..
  9. I think I'm going to have to use this as inspiration (read: copy track plan and do my own twist) It looks like it's small enough to hold my attention long enough to get done... whilst being able to keep it safe from the kids and SWMBO! I can only hope to get it halfway as good at this looks... *very* well done!
  10. They have a plow on the front of all the locos - more of a cow-catcher though. We just don't have the big f**kers you guys do...
  11. Stay safe! Let us know how it went when you get back!
  12. OK I did miss it... Would you be able to post a howto - electronics, framing, etc?
