... : 27 Sep 2014 18:41 from: scooter171103 cheers brian have had a play with your plan today to move the points away from the 8ft base board joint ive achieved this i think and have attached what ive done but i'm unsure now how to get the different bits of track to line up together and wether a 3 way would be better where the track enters the board in the middle on the right side does this make sense to you !! cheers simon Attachment: attach_1963_2539_brian_2.box 274 posted: 27 Sep 2014 19:07 from: Brian Nicholls Hi Simon, You have been busy. You have changed the layout quite a bit. I must admit, I was concerned about the 3 way, as these are quite a challenge for newcomers to Templot. However, I can do that for you if necessary. All the best, Brian. posted: 27 Sep 2014 19:55 from: Brian Nicholls Hi Simon, Looking at the track-work, for the turnout near the centre on the very top road, when in the control ...
... topic: 772 Timber spacing for extra lead length posted: 27 Mar 2009 07:30 from: jeckardt I have a turnout which looks fine. But when I increase the template length by, say, 100mm it adds an extra section of lead track (as it should), but the ties for that extra lead are all "shifted" by a tie width from where they should be. This results in a pair of close-spaced ties at the junction of the original template and the extra lead. Where is the definition set for this extra lead track? I expected it to be from the "plain track" definitions, but that doesn't seem to be the case (i.e., changing the "plain track" definition doesn't seem to alter the spacing of the extra lead. [Specifically, I need to increase the spacing between timbers J3 and A1.] Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Stephen, Owen has been producing track bases for 2mm scale for several years. I have some samples here -- they are moulded in nylon. There is a link to Owen's site, and other track parts suppliers, on the Templot web site at: http://www.templot.com/martweb/templot_forum.htm#links regards, Martin. posted: 13 Apr 2009 18:07 from: Stephen Freeman Hi, Interesting.

... topic: 2520 Peco Indviidulay components posted: 25 Aug 2014 10:07 from: Hayfield I have recently obtained some Peco Individulay components namely IL-121 Concrete sleepers and FixingsAndIL-112 Pandrol Clips The sleepers being 32 mm long I guess are for 00 gauge, the fixings that come with them dont look much like any chair listed on the MMRS sleeper and chair information, and I seem to remember someone saying the Pandrol clips are over scale Any thoughts please posted: 25 Aug 2014 11:26 from: Matt M. Hi, Yes they are not a "scale" item. You are up against the limits of injection moulding. Heat, flow rate and the thinness of section. It is the same reason that cockpit canopies in modern kits of aircraft are still so thick. Also from memory they do hold the rail. Any thiner and probably there wouldn't be the robustness that the task requires. Like any of these items it is a toss up for manufacturer for accuracy, successful manufacturing,market penetration and end use. It is ...
565. Winter 1963
... igloo in our garden in Gravesend in that year. I had left the UK by 1963. That was the year that I arrived in the USA for the first time (via India and Australia). Snow must appeal to me because, many years later, I finally retired to the snow belt along the southern shore of lake Ontario. Interestingly enough there are no snow ploughs in my heterogeneous collection of UK and US rolling stock; an omission that I must correct some time.

... on a Mac, even with Crossover. I appreciate that there is no intention to make a Mac version of Templot itself, but why oh why does it have to be so difficult to access the training materials? I really, really like Templot and- as a software developer myself- appreciate very much the efforts of Martin to create and maintain this (let alone provide support), but why does it have to be so difficult to access the tutorial videos?

They also run on the Mac side in Safari or any other browser. Martin is gradually updating the videos for various sections in FBR format. I haven't had a chance to try the most recent. But all have worked as advised so far. Regards, Matt M. posted: 20 Aug 2014 09:49 ...

I will now start to timber the turnout. I guess the best combination is timbers ...

I see exactly the challenge and this sounds like a promising way forward. I hope everyone else will not be looking daggers at me for getting you to introduce yet another user option! Looking forward to giving it a try! Many thanks again and best wishes, Howard posted: 27 Aug 2014 07:35 from: Martin Wynne Hi Howard, There is a bit of a fly in the ointment with this CTRL key scheme in that it conflicts with the keyboard shortcuts and menu accelerator keys. For store and background if you use the old CTRL+ V shortcut instead of INSERT, Templot will always see the CTRL key down and react accordingly. Fortunately I hadn't used the CTRL+ INSERT shortcut for anything else, so that option works ok. Likewise if you use the keyboard shortcuts for the items on the tools menu ...

572. Single slips
... the MCP and TCP peg positions on the half-diamonds. In the vast majority of cases they will then be in the correct positions. Hello Martin, If I use the pre-set slip switches when I peg the first one onto the MCP peg position it doesn't seem to locate on the diamond main road properly. 2110_062014_260000000.png I think this is where my problem starts with the switch location here. This is following the slip tutorial till pegging onto the MCP position. Thank You. Trevor. posted: 7 Aug 2014 07:00 from: Martin Wynne Hi Trevor, I can't be sure from your screenshot, but I think you forgot to align the curving direction. After snapping onto MCP, you probably needed to do geometry> invert curving, assuming you started with a turnout copied from the half-diamond on the right. As you are using Crossover/Linux/Wine (is that on a Mac?), can we first establish that you can download and play FBR videos? Download the FBR file below, and then in ...

... topic: 799 FB rail on turntable- size? posted: 2 May 2009 11:07 from: David Catton Hi, After much searching and pleading on various forums the kindness of someone on RMWeb resulted in the delivery of a copy of a copy of a Cowans Sheldon GA drawing of a 70ft turntable. This will allow a model to be built in due course for Bankhall. Then I noticed that it states on the drawing that the rail on the table is XXft/yard flat bottom rail. Unfortunately the figure for the weight of rail is on a fold in an earlier version of the drawing and cannot be deduced accurately from the print in my possession. Under magnification, it may be 30lbs/yard but more probably 80lbs/yard, although even this seems light. Does 80lbs/yard seem reasonable or does anyone have any better idea what it might actually be? And if so, what code of rail might be used to replicate it in 4mm=1ft scale or would it be a one-off section used on Cowans ...
... topic: 2479 Soddingham-under-Piddle (again....) posted: 1 Jul 2014 18:07 from: BeamEnds With Ubuntu closing the Unbuntu-One cloud site I've had to move a lot of files around, and came across the original Soddingham Templot file. Since O is out of the question on cost I started reading up on P4 and wondered what I could do in the space available 4mm. Why not OO?- well after O OO track just doesn't look right, both the gauge and the over-wide 6ft. Reading up on P4 suggested that 1000mm (~ 4ft) would need to be the minimum radius so more out of interest in Templot that anything else I bunged the 7mm plan into Templot and converted it to P4. It worked almost perfectly- only the single-slip, at 11ft by 12ft on the plan, needed anything more than tiny adjustments to length and/or curve. Half of the slip went over length and needed a bit of surgery to make it fit. Having fount ...
... wrote: So presumably the Fn key is next to the Ctrl key? Templot is much easier using the keyboard, but it does seem to be a minefield for beginners. Martin, On my Samsung NC10 PLus, the Fn key sits immediately to the right of the left hand CTRL key, so Ctrl+ Fn combinations are very easy- and can be with one finger. If things get too complex with keyboards, I do like Matt and revert to mouse and menus. Jim. posted: 23 Jun 2014 00:07 from: Matt M. Hi Martin, The problem with key shortcuts is they often become software specific. Not helped by the way OS issues creep in. And hardware issues. I tried a cheaper CAD program on the Windows/Bootcamp side of the computer. Whenever I drew a circle it would disappear behind the work area never to be seen again. An issue with the way the Apple displays work was as close as the programers got. To small a demographic to worry about so no fix. Just so you ...
