... topic: 2734 3D Printed Track and Turnouts posted: 9 Aug 2015 05:18 from: Andrew Barrowman Greetings fellow Templotters, As some of you already know, I've been messing about trying to print turnout bases on a 3D printer. It's fairly easy to create a 3D model of the timbers in CAD from any Templot template. It's also fairly simple to drag models of the chairs into the correct positions and orientation and combine them to produce an STL file to drive a printer. What is not so easy is producing 3D models for chairs that a) actually work, and b) don't look too horrible! I think I have reached a point where I'm limited by the printing technology itself. The results are actually a lot better than I thought they might be when I started out. Anyway, I've been making some wild guesses about chair dimensions, and I have not had a lot of luck finding anything on the Web. Any information would be greatly appreciated. (Here's a bit of track I've been using to test the latest chair ...

I have used Templot for some years now and recently, needing to create another couple of points, upgraded to Templot 2. Unfortunately on opening T2 says it cannot connect to the website, citing a lack of Internet connection. My BT HomeHub 3 is working okay so what have(or haven't) I done?

This is because my 3rd party antivirus (Avira Free) (I know what you and others have been preaching, but up to now it hasn't blinked at any Templot item so I've let it run) now detects a malware in templot_video_loader.exe and quarantines it in a place where I can't get at it.

... topic: 3004 // Greetings from Greece// posted: 4 Apr 2017 18:08 from: Panos Tsirigotis Hello I am a new member in templot club and want to introduce myself. I am Panos from Greece and I am an N scale railway modeller. I am currently modelling a prototype railway station in Greece and I op to handlay track. Although prototype track plans does not include curved turnouts (it was once the greek railway practise to use straight turnouts in yards and stations due to low contruction cost, and straight turnouts were pre assempled and set in place just like the RTR turnouts), I definately want the software's assistance on custom diamond crossings and easyments in curves. I attach a drawing of my track plan that is based on the prototype. I draw this track plan using Adobe illustrator I have a lot of queries regarding drawing in Templot. Truth is that begun to draw the plan but get stuck during the process. Hope that through the assistance of club members I complete my plan and start lay down trackwork. P.S ...

Rail of some sort (not Hi-Ni) is available elsewhere, alternatives for flexible track already exist (except for P4), so that really just leaves the chairs. Some 3D printed chairs are already available but probably a more costly option. It would be more inconvenient and costly, not being "Life as we know it" but ...

... topic: 3677 copy it to the background track plan posted: 23 May 2020 17:24 from: Arno When I copy the K-crossing check rail, e.g. to move it to another location, I cannot copy it to the background track plan. When I call ctrl-M the template disappears every time. What do I have to do to put the template in the background? Greetings Arno posted: 23 May 2020 17:26 from: Arno I found it. I always remove" track centre-lines" when I copy parts of templates. When I copy the K-crossing check rails I only have to allow to stand the track centre-lines to copy the templates into the background trail plan. For example, if I want to construct a double-slip with outside arcs, I leave the track centre-lines only once for the basic templates. Now I have to accept 4 additional centre-lines. Excuse me for the request. Greetings Jürgen Arno posted: 23 May 2020 23:27 from ...

She makes greetings cards for a hobby and the results are pretty good. Think letting her loose with my resistance soldering unit may be a step too far though.... Ah Festool, the white van mans favorite tool brand( with respect to Dewalt who think they are).

... I think is an easier approach for the newcomer to adopt than to plunge in and try to design everything as a single whole. cheers Nigel posted: 18 Mar 2009 23:42 from: davelong I'm not saying that there a just 2 distinct categories of templotiers out there. Also I didn't say anything about creating a beautiful sweeping curve and then plonking a turnout in it. Your approach you described is valid if I was to fit a layout of track into the real world. However when most people open Templot they are greeted by a vast emptyness of blue world. I start with a small piece of PLAIN track and then add turnouts but all the while they are tweaked and curved, transitions added etc. I never described building lots of plain track sections and stitching them together with added turnouts. I evolve from that one turnout to the next, seemingly the way you've described, sorting out the major pointwork configuration for what is needed for the particular layout plan. posted: 19 Mar 2009 00:20 from: John Lewis Nigel said [ ...

Last edited on 23 Dec 2020 21:21 by stuart1600 posted: 23 Dec 2020 21:31 from: Rob Manchester Hello David, I would be interested to know if the printed plans are acurate given that I assume the printer won't be calibrated. The track will be laid using gauges but it would be interesting to know how you get on. My plans printed using inkjet and laser at home are very accurate even without calibration. An idea of the cost would also be welcome. Seasons Greetings and stay safe. Rob posted: 23 Dec 2020 21:38 from: stuart1600 Rob, My plans were certainly accurate; but as a precaution I took a short plan of a couple of turnout templates initially and checked those for accuracy- they were spot on, so I then went back with the long layout plans.... From memory I think I paid around £50 for the 9m plan and a couple of other much shorter ones. I got the idea that they didn't often do printing on this ...

... topic: 3808 hello posted: 3 Nov 2020 20:43 from: Ian McKee Greetings, I have been studying Templot for a while, but since I don't have much free time, progress is slow- but I have managed to print out my first ladder crossover with two B-6 turnouts across four main lines. I am working in OO-SF, want to build the turnouts, and am using DCC concepts flexi track, and hope to install some concrete sleeper track using C&L sleepers and chairs, all in stainless steel track. I have an aspirational plan for the loft which is 5.3m by about 2.6m, restricted by the roof supports/ trusses. The open baseboards all constructed, with some track base for an outside loop. The priority is to get that running, so hopefully my 4 year old daughter will spend some time with the trains while I footer about on the next stages. Other elements may or may not follow, such as Waverley, Glasgow Queen Street and Oban stations, with a section of the ...
... the irony! That link just takes you to a page that says there is an egroup, but not a link to it. it does say there's a link in the newsletter but the only link I could see was so complex that it took me several attempts to get the long strong of random numbers, upper case and lower case letters correct, not confusing 0 with O, whilst struggling with very mild dyslexia. (QR code, anyone?) On successfully opening what turned out to be a PDF, I was greeted with "We are aware that some members are having difficulty accessing Society material on the web." Yes, the first difficulty was even getting to that document! Why on earth can't the links just be put onto the website? Surely we'd need some membership details to get to the forums so it's restricted to members only?

... -route the USB cable, or uncoil it or move it away from monitor/mains cables? I have found (unlike HP/Canon, which work on any old bit of wire) that with all Epson stuff it is always very iffy about the connections. It needs a high-quality or shorter USB cable to work reliably. You also need to connect/switch it on in the right order, making sure it is on and the ready light has stopped flashing before launching its software. cheers, Martin. Greetings Martin, Thanks for those extra thoughts. Your musings are, as always, interesting. I must say that I haven't noticed any of those effects that you describe. Maybe because my PC has a lot of USB sockets so items such as the scanner, external hard drives and printer aren't continually being unplugged and the USB cables aren't being rerouted. The external devices are brought into use by being plugged into the multi socket mains extension lead which has a single on/off switch. There were no physical changes between it ...

... fill the frame, so leaving it in place while the show runs isn't practical. I'm still learning my way with this software, please ignore any slight glitches. Alexander is still working on the controls, so there are likely to be some changes. Several users have asked for a "replay from start" button, so that there is no need for the endless looping. There is also a lot of stuff which I left off, such as the "share on Facebook" social media functions. cheers, Martin. Greetings Martin, Thanks for the quick response. That looks good, maybe add "click the middle button below to start, or is that too much hand holding? I didn't mean to have a title there all the time. I was assuming that the "video" would be accessed from a help list and the thought was to have a front screen to confirm what the viewer was about to see in case they'd clicked in the wrong place.

... topic: 3277 Clarification sought on O-SF gauge please posted: 1 Jun 2018 22:00 from: David Gregory Greetings from Sweden I've been building a track plan in Templot (v 2.19.b) using the preset gauge "O -SF"- in summary, 31.2mm gauge with 1.25mm flangeways. Today, I have seen a copy of the updated Gauge O Guild standards- dated September 2017- that state the O-SF gauge is 31.25mm gauge (with 1.25mm flangeways). Please see attached PDF. Will the real O-SF standard please step forward? I mean, before I get some gauges purchased (made-up), can someone please advise which is the "correct" O-SF gauge or is the apparent disparity just an indication that O-SF has somehow evolved from 31.2 to 31.25 over time?
