... topic: 1406 Slips posted: 6 Mar 2011 10:39 from: sm I'm trying to draw a single slip, I have even printed off the instructions from the "how to" site and have followed the instructions to the letter, although I have no clue what tcp or mcp means (training centre point/main centre point ?) My god could you make this any harder ?, two hours later and I still have no single slip. I have the diamond crossing and I've parked the switch heel template ... as 1in6 is a bit tight and I've used various tricks to get up to 17.5" radius. The equivalent in P4 would normally be considered too tight! (Edit- up to 17.5" minimum radius now!)

... topic: 124 00-SF history and information posted: 10 Aug 2007 05:25 from: Martin Wynne Dear all, There has been a rather acrimonious discussion about 00-SF on the RMweb forum today in which my name has been mentioned. I thought I would write a few notes about the background to 00-SF. Please feel free to copy this to RMweb or the 00-SF group if you wish. I myself have manufactured hundreds of 00-SF turnouts and sold them to very satisfied customers ... I can get locally here in the bush( weather's good though and the beaches are beautiful). My planned track will have some tight curves down to what Peco call second radius- is this a problem for 00-SF? Trev posted: 13 Aug 2007 08:57 from: Rextanka Hi Trev, my understanding of 00-SF is that you narrow the gauge slightly on your turnouts and close up the check rail gap slightly, these mods help to provide reliable running on switches with finer scale wheels. I've not ...
... turnout! It looks far too, well, spread out in the yard. I had in my mind something far more cramped. If the inner radius is tightened to say 5' (and whatever seems best for the other 2 radii- 7'6'' and 10'?) and the whole thing made as short as possible, what would it look like then? I don't know if that will even make sense, but at the moment, I would be better off with 2 normal turnouts than the 3 way. ... by Alan McMillan posted: 27 Jul 2009 13:35 from: Alan McMillan Here it is then- the final version!

... : 23 Jun 2008 11:19 from: Paul Hamilton Thank you Martin for the response and please excuse the tardiness in replying. I guess I don't quite see the complete advantage in using the CJF when the design will be distorted by the resizing. In the 10' direction this would be a 10% distortion. I would doubt that the track layout is disctorted by 10% in the use of Peco templates versus smooth curves however it really is a mute point I imagine. As such I wondered if there would be ... meantime continue to develop my constuction skills building a couple of B7 points for my test track (vee and wing rails made but waiting on delivery of my EM roling gauge set before cracking open the fine bottle of fumes called MEK!) posted: 1 Jul 2008 08:33 from: Martin Wynne Paul Hamilton wrote: Where to from here Martin?

That means it is now much cheaper in real terms than it was, despite the many new features introduced over that time.
