However, if you are new to Templot I would strongly recommend that you get some experience of the way the program works before attempting to design over a scanned guide. p.s. your scanned sketch will be much easier to use if you turn it through 90 degrees first. 2. Failing the above how do I draw a simple rectangle 1850 mm x 630mm, what should I enter in the 4 dimension boxes? Enter 0, 0, 1850, 630 to create your rectangle background shape. regards, Martin.

202. Kingsbere
... topic: 1764 Kingsbere posted: 4 Jan 2012 18:45 from: LSWRArt Hi everyone Here are my first ideas for my new 0 gauge layout- which will be LSWR circa 1912. Minimum radius is generally 1200mm and I propose to run a Terrier, and probably in the future an 02 and radial tank. All comments would be gratefully received. I hope that it will not look too cramped in the very small space available? If the overall layout is OK, what about the sleepering. It does not look quite right to me, but not sure what to do to improve it. I will send the sketchboard separately Regards Arthur Attachment: attach_1297_1764_Kingsbere_4Jan12 .box 341 posted: 4 Jan 2012 18:46 from: LSWRArt Here is the sketchboard to go with Kingsmere track plan Arthur Attachment: attach_1298_1764_kingsbere_bldgs_4 jan12.sk9 354 posted: 4 Jan 2012 20:28 from: Rob Manchester Hello Arthur, Just my views :- 1) How do you run round a train in the platform? 2) There is a lot of shuffling back and forward to ...

... a switch is only that part of a turnout which comprises the moving points (blades), not the entire thing. You will get hopelessly lost in Templot if you refer to an entire turnout as a switch. startup_pad.png You can set up Templot for any scale, gauge and flangeway gap standards. There is a long list of pre-set gauge/scale combinations, but it is very easy to create your own custom settings. In fact the 7mm/31.5mm combination is already in there, with 1.5mm flangeways, designated 0-MF. This for use with the "industry standard" 0 gauge wheels, set to 29.2mm back-to-back (30.0mm max BEF). For the narrower S7 wheels I assume you are using narrower flangeways for full support and wider back-to-back. Templot can be set to whatever dimensions you are using. regards, Martin. 20 Aug 2010 16:32 from: Nigel Brown Never needed to do this, but just tried it. First of all set gauge/scale to S7. ...

... platform and run-round loop or between two parrallel platforms? David posted: 23 Mar 2008 22:52 from: Martin Wynne David Higgs wrote: I would like to replicate a GWR BLT in standard gauge that was built to Broad Gauge, something on the lines of Moretonhampstead. What would be the typical centre spacing of two parallel lines after conversion to standard gauge i.e between the main platform and run-round loop or between two parallel platforms? Hi David, Details of GWR baulk road track and pointwork is in issues 0 and 1 of Model Railway Journal. The Broad Gauge Society is the place for the full chapter and verse: http://www.broadgauge.org.uk It seems that the 6ft way between the tracks was standard even then (or 6ft-6in between the running edges on the GWR). So to find the track centre-to-centre spacing you simply add on the gauge: 7'-0.1/4" gauge+ 6'-6"= 13'-6.1/4" centres (54.08mm in 4mm scale ...
207. Double slip query
... Martin Wynne Graham Bridle wrote: I have managed at last to produce a double slip but I have two problems. The middle check rails(K crossing?) foul the curving slips. Also the tie bars seem to be crossing each other. Hi Graham, The problem with the K-crossing check rails is caused by the fact that you are using overscale flangeways (G0G-F). There is some discussion and screenshots with possible workarounds in this topic: topic 324 The situation would be eased if you changed to 0-MF or 0-SF instead of G0G-F, and you would get better running too. But the only way to have a K-crossing in a slip looking entirely correct is to model in ScaleSeven, with exact scale flangeways. Those aren't tie-bars, they are drive slots (" switch drive marks"). Templot makes a guide mark where it thinks you probably want to have a slot in the baseboard for the switch drive (point motor linkage). It's purely a guide, and ...

I think you misunderstood me when I said the imports work in Templot, what I meant is that I can export and reimport the same dxf file created in Templot with retained accuracy. However, when I try to import a dxf file from either of the other programs the coordinates all end up as 0 in templot. I have not tried saving them in an older format, Ill try that as well and get back to you on the result. Attached are two files, each created in different programs.

... you were aware of Alan Ferguson's beginners guide? If not, could you please have a look at it. Then, with the eyes of a novice employing a scale from (1) encouraging/reassuring to (5) useless/disappointing and rate it as either one or the other or above or below 3. I would be grateful. After a number of years trying to get to grips with Templot (and failing!) I viewed Alan's beginners guide and proceeded to plan two layouts, one P4, the other 0-16.5 and then I used the templates to build the track for the P4 layout. The results can be seen here: http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php/topic/19096-wigmore-road-sidings/ The track for the narrow gauge layout is this winter's project. So on a scale of 1 to 5 I most certainly give it a Great Big ONE (and a star if available). Regards Arthur posted: 25 Aug 2010 21:16 from: donald peters Visited your rmweb site ...

212. Confused by radii
... > make split> make plain track turnout road> on internal geometrical radius, which produces 719mm radius. re the1274.45mm dimension -- the line you missed in the data is this: "equivalent straight template dimensions BEFORE curving:" That dimension would apply to a straight A-5 turnout. It's not a good idea to put a short turnout such as an A-5 in such a sharp ruling curve, the radius will be far too tight. Your main road curving at 1288mm is already near the bottom limit for 0 Gauge, so to have a turnout diverging from the inside it will need to be a very long turnout, such as a D-12. You can ease the radius a little by changing to a generic type of V-crossing. (Or curviform, according to the needs of the connecting geometry.) regards, Martin. posted: 24 Aug 2011 14:28 from: Paulr1949 Martin Wynne wrote: Hi Paul, It's not a good idea to put a short turnout such as an A-5 in ...

... topic: 459 Gauge tools for track building posted: 18 Jun 2008 16:51 from: BeamEnds Another question.... I have obtained an 0 track gauge that has both the running and check rail positions cut as slots in round bar, rather that the check rail being butted up against a rib as in the gauges mentioned so far. This seems to have the advantage of being able to hold all 4 rails at a time, but I'm thinking there could be problems with the Vee's- or am I getting over worried?

... of a Templot template showing that: blunt_nose.png It's worth printing a duplicate copy of the template so that the position of details obscured by the timbers can be checked during construction. For bullhead track the blunt nose width is 3/4" wide at the tip which scales to 0.44mm (17 thou) at 7mm/ft, so it's quite noticeably blunt and looks so much better than a sharp vee hanging in fresh air between the timbers. (GWR is 11/16" wide, 0.40mm, 16 thou). For 0-MF (31.5mm track gauge) the flangeways are narrow enough to allow for a scale width blunt nose, and still provide full support to the wheels through the V-crossing (frog). regards, Martin. posted: 7 Jun 2009 14:23 from: Paul Boyd Hi Martin the '+' on the Templot template marks where the true point of the V should be.

217. Large layout
... 16' section? I used 'select group' to give a rough approximation of the area, but of course templates go outside the specific area I want to print. Hi Gordon. I only wondered because I downloaded the file and the grid is set to mm. I have been trying to generate a pdf file of the top strip the 13'-16' which is what I presume you are after. After a couple of abortive attempts I managed to do it in theTDV by altering the page origin to X=0 and Y=3962.4mm (13'). and then setting the pdf page size to Long side 2743.2mm (9') Short side 914.4mm (3'). I tried to do it with an 18' page length and got a blank page, but it works as two 9' pages, but the files are huge 64 MB. Hope this helps. I'm sure Martin will give you the definitive answer.
