If so, we folks who cram a quart into a pint pot have found a prototype Hi Jim, I doubt it. A switches always look much more "industrial" than this. Lens perspective can be very misleading. My guess is a B7 or B7.5 -- it's a straight turnout so amenable to some gimping. I'll see what I can ...

The problem is that instead of filtering each individual email for spam, Comcast takes the lazy way out and blocks entire ISPs and email servers if one user sends spam. To understand how unreasonable this is, imagine that everyone in your street was banned from driving because one of your neighbours was found guilty of dangerous driving!

I am sure of one thing though, when the full diamond is constructed, all the rails of the two roads, follow the guide curves exactly all the way through and are a perfect match. BTW, many thanks Paul for the advice about the K crossing options in 0.91c. Thanks again for the messages.

Only if the K-crossing angles span the limit will you get a mixed diamond. They probably don't. Why not join the development group and try it again in TDV? Apart from solving the angle question you will see how much easier ...
... topic: 2985 Modifying check rails on background templates to match the control template posted: 22 Feb 2017 02:04 from: Rick Hi there fellow Temploters: I'm spending time re-learning Templot after several years in the wilderness. My dilemma/ question relates to making changes made to the geometry of the current control template being reflected in the background turnout templates. I have a turnout Control Template that I am adjusting as I go along and I want these alterations to turnout geometry to be reflected in the existing turnout Background Templates; for them to be updated too so all of them have the same geometry. I can alter rails and timbers for all templates using the 'modify group to match' options under the real menu item. This works fine. However, when I try to alter the check and wing rail geometry using the real> adjust check rails menu item, I can't see any way to modify or update the other background turnout templates. There doesn't seem to be a 'modify group to match' option in this case.The attached file shows ...
... However, when entering a new shape, it is entered below the one currently highlighted in the list. So for example if you already have posts numbers 53 and 55 in the list, you can enter post number 54 between them by first selecting number 53 in the list. An alphanumerical sort function wouldn't be too difficult to implement. Could you please post a note in the "I wish it would..." forum so that I don't overlook it? Thanks. regards, Martin. posted: 10 Sep 2007 02:02 from: Jane Hi, Martin I figured out a way to generate a file containing the shapes, given the post numbers and their coordinates.

Hi Dave, I'm not too clear what you mean by "back" to 16.5mm? The track gauge for 00-SF is 16.2mm. I'm not convinced that the majority of users would connect it to 16.5mm track, and even then only for a few of the templates. A lot of users will be constructing 16.2mm plain track, if not for the entire layout then ...
151. MERG CBUS system
... . I am not( as yet) interested in interlocking, occupancy detection or feedback to a computer so would just require a kit( or PCB and component list) to enable servos to be actuated via a DCC system. I think I should join MERG now rather than waiting, it isn't expensive, and at least I can get access to the tech info and figures out what each module is capable of. I can then start to join the queues at Maplin for some bits Rob posted: 24 Oct 2017 23:02 from: Charles Orr Rob, You will find that Rapid Electronics, Farnell or RS Components will be much cheaper than Maplin.

Would you take a minute or two to briefly explain the background to the EM-SF and EM4 options in the Templot gauge list. There was some correspondence in Model Railway Journal recently ago but the few recent MRJ's I have aren't the right ones for me to refer to. I have plans for some small cameo layouts that may be good choices for experimenting. Regards Rob posted: 29 Jan 2019 02:37 from: Martin Wynne Rob Manchester wrote: Hope you are well.

Both these options were added to Templot after some correspondence on the forums, but I can't remember which ones or when, sorry. Both are derived from the existence of 0.8mm check rail chairs from Exactoscale, which the Exactoscale web site describes as " ...

Were you simply stress-testing the tandem function, or were you intending to use such a turnout in your track plan? I didn't think to test for such an unusual size in the code, although I did say on the web page "The starting turnout can be any reasonable size". A B-12 is not reasonable or prototypical. Having ...

156. Lost shapes file
... one bitmap, one rectangle and one line, and got the following: 105_301735_260000000.png That description isn't anything I would enter, and the timestamp is about 15 minutes earlier than the file timestamp. Look at the coordinates- that line is going nowhere! Any ideas what might have happened? I can't think of anything I was doing differently, and the file was saved by overwriting the previous file (I usually do this for shape files). Fortunately this particular shape file won't be difficult to recreate! posted: 31 Jan 2010 02:42 from: Martin Wynne Hi Paul, Thanks for the report. A "pen-line" background shape is created when using the draw function with the spacing-ring tool. If you haven't moved the spacing-ring you will get a pen-line from 0 to 0. So you can create exactly that shapes file instead of the one you thought you had, by doing this: 1. If the Background Shapes dialog is open you can delete all by pressing A on the keyboard, followed by ...

... LSWRArt Hi Stephen, Do you use the high nickel content NS for the points, common crossings and blades you supply, as most Templot contributors think this is better than 'standard' NS? What is your feeling about minimum radius for 0-MF? I would much prefer to use this finer standard, as aeons ago I built both 00 gauge and S4 points and found the S4 so much easier to build for reliable operation, because there was less room for error. I shall be running a LSW Terrier, radial, 02, but due to the very limited space in the spare bedroom I will be down to 1200mm radius on the main line/ main line points and 1100mm in the yard/ yard points and was worried whether this is too small for 0-MF, as the Templot alarm for 0-MS is set at 1750mm by default. I am a member of the South Western Circle, but if you have some links to other info for this company I would be grateful for these. Like Howard I have used Relco in ...

This degree of standardisation makes it possible to concentrate on ...
