      just got to think of a name for the layout

       

  3. Adamphillip

    new layout in planning, this one is a OO city terminus that will be built on 3 4ft by 1.5ft boards

      sounds interesting.

      should be a nice layout for shows, I'm going to be making the overall roof and details in my 3D printer

  4. Adamphillip

    thinking about remaking my layout with peco points as currently I'm using Hornby points

    1. Adamphillip

      Adamphillip

      only problem is some of the corners are too tight for peco track spacings

    2. steve22

      steve22

      If you're replacing Hornby with Peco Setrack the problem that Adamphilip mentions shouldn't arise. When I've used Peco Streamline I've increased the track spacing on the corners to Setrack spacing. All this assuming that you have double track and corners, of course.

    soo tempted on buying some trains but need the money for motorbike tires and insurance

      Can also recommend schmidt-wissen.de or Modellbahnshop Sebnitz, among others.

      Think maybe Acadia

  8. Adamphillip

    the Piko smartcontroller looks interesting, especially the train sets it's sold with

    I want to start producing a kit for improved class 91s, what bogies are the right size with a center motor to match?

      also Clag only have the wheel diameter for a class 91

      I have posted something in the modelling questions, help and tips section, look there.

    what happened to ontracks? I know this might be random but I've only just noticed they're gone

      Aren't they now Golden Valley Hobbies?

  12. Adamphillip

    doing a 3D model of a class 91, should I make one of the early style ones with the boxes on the front or the new style with the smooth front?

  13. Adamphillip

    how much would anyone be willing to pay for packs of 6 jersey barriers in 00?

    1. shortliner

      shortliner

      depends on length and I'd need them in HO

    2. Adamphillip

      Adamphillip

      well it's scale-able because I 3D print them to order

  14. Adamphillip

    anyone want to send me a basic 3D model of a class 91 shell to fiddle with, might send it to shapeways once I'm done

  15. Adamphillip

    printed some relay boxes and jersey barriers

  16. Adamphillip

    new "micro?" layout on the books, size depending on how much 3D printed goodness needs fitting on it

  17. Adamphillip

    should I put a layout that I'm using as a 3D showcase in special interests or layout topics

  18. Adamphillip

    depending on the complexity I might be making a SLS 3D printer to allow for better print quality over my current FDM printer

    1. Adamphillip

      Adamphillip

      yeah sadly there are no blueprints or plans available so just going to have to wait for the prices to come down

       

  19. Adamphillip

    I wonder, in 00 gauge how long is a single eurostar coach

    1. Londontram

      Londontram

      According to goggle there

      18.7 m (61 ft 4 in) (middle)[1]

      22.15 m (72 ft 8 in) (driving)

      21.84 m (71 ft 8 in) (powered middle)which makes at 4mm to 1ft a middle coach is 245mm long

       

    2. Adamphillip

      Adamphillip

      thanks, been thinking about 3d printing intermediate coaches to replace Hornby ones

  20. Adamphillip

    so want to make class 07 shunters now as I saw a diagram for one

  21. Adamphillip

    trying to find drawings of mail/baggage coaches to tray and make a 3D model out of

      SR like the Hornby ones that use to go with the m7

  22. Adamphillip

    that 009 wagon I printed yesterday was at 100 microns, the printer I have can go down to 20

      is there a topic on here showing them ??

  24. Adamphillip

    first ever wagon has been printed in 009 http://tinyurl.com/npsnvmu

  25. Adamphillip

    first 3d print? a bin in O gauge and it doesn't like the wheels

      Your just at the beginning of the learning curve - a steep long expensive scary curve but a learning curve none the less!
