They are identical except that one has all links enabled and the other has all links disabled. I'm not aware of having made any changes. Any idea why?

... the Loughborough area. posted: 25 Jul 2013 15:13 from: Paul Boyd Hi Geoff Thanks for the info. Although I tend to work "on the bench", in practise this is a temporary bench (a slab of Contiboard) that may be 6ft long and slid across the dining table as I progress, so probably not much different to working on the layout. I've just ordered another batch of chairs from Masokits so I'll try your method when they eventually arrive! Cheers posted: 25 Jul 2013 17:10 from: Phil O Hi Paul In a long length of soldering, I use the method that I learnt when welding, start at the centre and work out to the ends, possibly every forth or fifth sleeper first to tack the rail in place and the go back to the centre and work you way out again, until all is soldered, this keeps the heat in one place to a minimum. On really big welding jobs we stuck it in a big oven and warmed it all up before starting and put it ...

164. Banner printing
... few mm inside though -- if you set the absolute maximum printable size the printer may object (because of rounding effects). N.B. Check the printable area for the printer, it's not usually the full paper size. I doubt that an A0 printer can print 841mm width. That's the full width of A0 paper. But roll paper is usually 36 inches wide (914mm), so A0 sizes are easily accommodated. You need to get the available printable width from the print shop. regards, Martin. posted: 10 Feb 2016 07:56 from: johnbirch72 Thanks Martin. I missed the p.s. in the earlier reply.

165. Sleepers and timbers
... at 90 degrees to the main road or equalized, indeed, it will often be found easier to timber a double junction with equalized timbering as the timbering of the diamond will always be of this type. It should also be bourne in mind that the nose of the crossing of the inner turnout will be in advance of that on the outer road in order to allow for the track spacing to increase entering the curve. See the example below. Tony.

Or calculate the extra overhang at the end using the coach length l as= sqrt((r -c )* (r -c)+ l*l /4)- r Mike Johnson Just checked the Guild manual and it says that a BR Mk1 should need 80mm centers at 1800mm radius, so something is wrong.

... 5' 1". This obviously will force further changes to ensure my track spacings are correct. Sorry for posting prematurely but this is a good example of why it is always best to check before starting any build. I have two options- keep things as they are and use bracket signals in places of conflict or redesign to make compliant spacings. If anyone has any suggestions I would still like to hear from you so that these can be included in my re-vamp.

Hi Peter, That's a very odd dimension. Where did you find it? is it from the edge of the post or the centre? To which edge of the running rail? The usual track spacings for multiple tracks (minimum) are alternating 6ft way and 10ft way. If a signal post is placed in the middle of the 10ft way ...

I had forgotten that option. Looking at Martin's help notes I maybe don't need the wider joint sleepers for the current project :- "In the pre-grouping era, some railways used 12 inch wide timbers in place of standard sleepers adjacent to the rail joints in plain track." and as I am using 8'6" sleepers for post-grouping it seems that the practice may have ...

Is that really true? I hate it when I google how to do something only to find that to get the answer I have to wade through a 10 minute video instead of being able to read through something at my own speed. I know that on yours we can easily pause video, but you still can't print a video out and keep it in a file! I wonder what other people think? I think now that by far the best set of instructions and tutorials is this very forum! How about making any documentation no more than a "Getting started" set of instructions with all the basics covered, sufficient to create, say, a simple GWR terminus station ...

177. Servos for Turnouts
... . Gone a bit OT there. posted: 24 Nov 2009 23:23 from: Martin Lloyd There is a system on the market. It's interesting but pricey. http://www.copnor.enta.net/FS/TheBouncer.htm I quite like the idea because I couldn't really get my head around the idea of using a Tortoise or Fulgurex motor for a 4mm ground signal. I've experimented with memory wire and like it but it takes up rather a lot of space. Cause for some more experimentation! posted: 25 Nov 2009 06:10 from: Stephen Freeman As far as I can see from his website, The Bouncer gives you just one bounce. Well if you just want it for turnouts, there is the MERG design, I believe the design is freely available along with the software and firmware. but you also have to have all the kit to flash program the chip. The software to do this is free from Microchip but you have to buy the Programmer (Pickit2 possibly- there are others). To buy the kit for Servo4 though, ...

... topic: 1415 Printing templates on A3 posted: 10 Mar 2011 09:26 from: brianlwood I have a query with regard to printing templates from Templot. I currently print in A4 then marry the sheets together, no problems there. However, I am considering buying an A3 printer. Is there a way that I can then print onto A3 paper and get all of a turnout on such paper. Kind Regards, Brian Wood. posted: 10 Mar 2011 09:44 from: Stephen Freeman Maybe.

If you set the printer to print A3 size, that will be the size of the pages from Templot. They will fit together by ...
180. Templot GUI Control
... at that point we found out who had followed the guidelines and who had not! Of course, over successive OS versions they have completely re-arranged all the directory structures/ folder names etc, but programmes written to the 15 year old guidelines continue to work fine. So here is the answer to your question Martin:- the "problem it causes" is that Templot is not "system independent" thus, if they *ban* writing (or installations) to the root directory in WIN 8/9 /10 Templot will not work. You then have a re-write forced on you OR we as users cannot upgrade our machines. Having said all that, and recognising the long development path (no pun!) of Templot, I really sympathise and fully agree that there are more important things in which to to invest your precious programming time! In any case, we will probably all be long dead before Microsoft mess with C:/ !! Nigel, with respect, Windows did not start as a competitor to " ...
