I was sorely tempted not to include the JPG option, but allowed it because you may perhaps have a large scanned image on the background as a picture shape.

You have some close-spaced sharp curves there for a main-line layout in 0 gauge. For example the inner curve here is under 4ft-6in radius. Templot has a dummy vehicle tool for checking clearances, and unfortunately as you can see you have some significant conflicts on these curves: 2_271638_330000000.png It does depend on the actual size of ...

Sketchboard can add bitmap items in any of these file formats: BMP, GIF, PNG, JPG, HCK. It is important for non-rectangular objects that the background can be made transparent. Otherwise such objects would be displayed on a rectangular image patch. This means that only GIF and PNG are the real options, and sketchboard supports transparent backgrounds for ...
... the way it had been at the grouping with very little change and I'm sure that most, if not all, of the track was still in Caledonian style. Another thing of note is a North British table of switch and crossing leads which appeared in the Gauge 0 Guild manual some years ago (it might still be included). The quality is very poor and would hardly be worth scanning, but I could copy the values into a new table if people are interested. Jim.

I put a+ 3 dioptre close-up lens on the camera, set f/16, left everything else on Auto, attached an air-tube release, plonked an 0 Gauge wagon in front of it, and this is the result: 1. Full frame reduced to 20%: wagon_close_up2.jpg 2. Actual size dot-for-dot cropped from the (JPG) image. This is an area about 10mm x 8mm on ... model, i.e. about 100 dots per mm. wagon_close_up1.jpg I'm well pleased with that, bearing in mind how little effort was needed to set it up.

The wagon could do with a bit of tweaking, too. cheers, Martin. posted: 28 Feb 2018 14:04 from: Paul Boyd All this technical talk! I've recently bought a couple of, um ...

You don't need a BMP file (that is from older versions of Templot). Nowadays all the common image formats work -- usually JPG for a scan. But you can still use the BMP file. Don't use the sketchboard. You can add images that way, but for what you want it is better to use a picture shape. N.B. Don't start this until you have made your ...

... other companies had 3 or 4 holes. Are you looking for CAD drawings of the raw chair casting, or with screwheads and key in place? If the latter you need to specify the model scale and details of the model rail section. For example, most 0 gauge modellers use code 125 bullhead rail, even though the common prototype BS-95R bullhead rail scales to code 131. I've never understood why that is, but it does mean that the key-top dimensions have to be modified to fit, and also ... give you links.

... fires a monostable and that starts a servo positioning cycle. The width of the input pulse provides the desired position information. There's not too much data available on the chip inside the servo but from what I've seen the input goes straight into the base of a NPN transistor. If the input signal rises to around 0.7 volts, the transistor turns on and triggers the monostable cycle. Rather than increasing the noise margin a pull-up resistor can actually reduce it. One solution that does seem to help is to elevate the servo's 0 volt rail above the 0 volt rail of the controller. That can be done with a diode, a resistor and a capacitor. The voltage drop through the diode raises the the servo's 0 volt rail by around 0.7 volts and that does add quite a bit of noise margin. Unfortunately it also violates the servo's spec (such as it is), but in practice it doesn't seem to cause a problem. Oh dear! Maybe we should start a new thread on servos Regards, Andrew B posted: 23 Oct 2017 ...

... quote this information when they reviewed a product but seem to have stopped now.) What is the correct back to back for 31mm gauge track? I have looked at the C and L website and they quote different types of chair. I am intending to model BR 1960's eastern region, what should I go for? Also regarding chairs, are there special ones for holding the check rails and Vees etc or are they made up by cutting and glueing existing ones? (Do you know where there are examples of well made 0 gauge track that I could access on the web for reference purposes?) When at the exhibition I noticed that a jig was used to put a small dog-leg in the stock rails to allow the point blades to fit snugly, is this standard procedure, or are there alternative methods?

Hi David, Welcome to Templot Club. It is 20 years since I first included the 0-MF and 0-SF standards in Templot (and until recently also the flawed 0-XF standard).
