... however like to say that I find your threat of legal action offensive and entirely uncalled for. I feel your post could have been put across in a politer fashion rather than an aggressive threat. We all know there is a proportion of nut jobs on the internet and that we should perhaps all take what they say with a pinch of salt, this is why I asked my question on this forum in the first place, to see if I could clarify if there was in fact any issue. But alas I just get attacked. Being on the receiving end of such an barrage is a sure way to put me off buying a product, and is yet another straw on the camels back that makes me want to give up on the Hobby of Railway modelling in the UK.

... dial-up. CDs are just more clutter! If Templot was going to continue selling on a CD, then it probably ought to have a complete and up-to-date version of the website help pages so that those on dial-up (who perhaps are most likely to want a CD) can have ready access to this material. posted: 25 Sep 2007 16:44 from: donald peters My Templot installation is on a different computer than that used for my Web connection because of historic problems from virus attack. Because my Web computer has no CD write capability all data has to be transferred by floppy. Pugs are now too large for this means so the only choice is a CD. Only downloading of data is a no-no.

... did you use to get the colours of the sleepers and chairs looking like that in the 6th post down. It looks about spot on for what I am aiming for. Cheers Hello Michael Thanks for your comments. It's been over two years since I built this track but from memory having built it, whilst still attached to the paper template I fist sprayed it with grey primer which sticks well to wood and metal and provides a good neutral lightship background for further colouring. I then took it out into the garden and gently attacked it with my airbrush using a mid grey brown for sleepering and a darkiskish rust colour for the rail sides. It now needs further colouring with dry brushing and powders or ground pastels to give it some variation in colour and, as this is an MPD then a bit more grime and filth. I think that when in doubt keep it light in colour and under state. Kind regards Andrew posted: 6 Jul 2017 21:39 from: Andrew Duncan Hello everyone At the end of the month I'm treating myself to a ...

... petrol by contrast, contains a lot of benzene which is just about as Cat. 1 as it is possible to get (just remember that the next time you smell petrol at a filling station). On this basis,I would definately have petrol banned immediately given that Diesel exists as a "suitable alternative". [I wonder why it has not been banned? I wonder why we invaded Iraq?] The reason I tend to use DCM for ABS is that MEK is relatively ineffective- I find that DCM will attack the base of the chair sufficient to get a bond much quicker, using much less solvent. My source for it is Plastic Weld as Phil mentions. In our use, I would treat BOTH DCM and MEK in exactly the same way- keep the area very well ventilated with airflow drawing vapour away from you. By the way, in my ideal world, everything would be solderable!! Best Regards, Howard. posted: 7 Aug 2010 16:54 from: Brian Lewis Nonsense. MEK is better than DCM ...
... crisp videos here, exactly as originally recorded, but I can't seem to find a means to deliver them to everyone else. Who are thereby condemned to watch fuzzy screen videos, which is ok for a minute or two but liable to give severe headache after longer periods. cheers, Martin. posted: 25 Oct 2017 04:11 from: Matt M. While Flash does have some issues and Apple is a bit of a control freak, Apple's problems with it stem from the fact that two of the most aggressive trojan attacks on their OS were delivered using Flash. As Flash is something they can't control it is out. Apple has a tendency to do that with a few things. I have watched MP4 files of high quality on my computer so it may just be a codec compatibility issue. I have also seen some weird things graphically in Windows 7 on the Bootcamp side of the computer my favourite being the CAD program were every time you completed a circle it would disappear behind the work surface never to be seen again.

... but from the comments on this web site it appears that Windows is at last growing up. Other better constructed OS's have long used an architecture which rigorously enforces a separation between user and administrator modes (linux/unix being just one (or two) popular example(s )), one which protects the system as a whole from being damaged when normal (user) mode is in operation, whether from errors in software or maliciously from viruses. This is the main reason why other OS's are much more secure from virus attack. If Vista has gone in this direction, then I reckon it's more the case of the Antivirus program being an extra security function over the UAC, rather than vice versa. cheers Nigel posted: 6 Oct 2007 21:12 from: Jim Guthrie BTuckey wrote: Jim Guthrie wrote: I believe this is why the new Microsoft keyboards have smaller keys that are closer together ;-) Brian (Who had better stop going off topic lest he incur the wrath of Martin...)

Operating systems have support for interesting user interfaces features, but none of them seem to be used. We often face applications having static user interfaces. The interesting thing is that companies have everything needed to build up dynamic user interactive applications. There may be several reasons why they are not doing this, though this is not my concern. As a counter-attack to this, I have done a little demonstration application. It has a dynamic user interface and demonstrates in a simple fashion that user interfaces can be more attractive than the good old rectangular windows that we see each day.

... : 14 May 2020 20:21 from: Gordon S Decided to start again as I wasn't happy with what was evolving. Spaced the main tracks out to 100mm as they were too close and took your advice to use 1:4 turnouts. I was too far through the first version at the time, so kept going. At least I have two options now to consider. 479_141517_570000000.png That's enough for today, so I'm going to put my feet up and chill out for a while. If all is OK, I'll attack the other end tomorrow. Are we going in the right direction and can we easily thicken up the track lines to take the 7mm LED's? I'm trying to aim for a maximum panel size around 800mm.

... new policy I don't agree with it. But I do understand it. In the case of AVG there was a work around. Panda I don't know about having never used it. AVG appeared to make it okay reasonably fast according to what I read on the forum. And that would be some form of identification or scanning. If something is new your anti-virus software will not be able to scan it to identify what it is from its library of viruses. Don't take the extreme language they use as a personal attack. It's that old saying, if you are a hammer (anti-virus software) everything looks like a nail. As far as programs interfering with what I can do on the computer the OS companies do it all the time. Apple has a hit list of programs that they openly discourage and block. One of the Tif file systems won't run on native programs as it is considered a security risk. Java is blocked from interacting with the OS. Then there is Apple's hate, hate relationship with Adobe and Flash ...
... topic: 3032 Brunel Blues #2~ 7mm dual gauge posted: 30 May 2017 14:53 from: keithj15 Two years ago I started the topic "Brunel Blues 7mm problems" .Then sadly at the end of April 2015 my modelling friend Peter was involved in a horrific accident during a Motor rally in Ireland, and as he was the key mover and shaker on the project every thing got shelved. Then a year later I suffered a massive heart attack which kept me in hospital and recuperation for the whole summer. As if that was not enough this was followed by a detached retina and cataracts, so that put me back in hospital and grounded at home for another 4 months. Well that's the back story out of the way. Peter is on the mend but sadly will be disabled, and I have recovered with a heart bypass and lens replacement. We are back in the modelling room, but after much discussion we have decided to change the St.Ives layout that we never built due to the above, and plan a hybrid layout ...
... group Scottish practice. I'm so glad that I seized my opportunity to photograph and take some measurements from a North British turnout at Rannoch that was still around in the 1980's. Unfortunately, I didn't know then what I know now, and didn't take a number of measurements I would subsequently have found useful. Moreover, some of my measurements in hindsight appear suspect, so I have had on occasion to draw inferences from my photographs and the work of others. In my defence I plead that throughout my measuring I was under unrelenting attack from a cloud of midges that obviously had a distracting effect! posted: 7 Nov 2015 14:39 from: Martin Wynne John Palmer wrote: The problem I perceive with location of the joint between sleepers is that, unless the heel of the switch is supported by a heel plate such as that used by the North British, the load imposed by a passing wheel will tend to cause the switch to rotate in the vertical plane, the last adjacent chair through which the switch passes acting as a fulcrum.

I have to report that I have now hit a brick wall... I had hoped to be laying templates on to the plywood by now but alas... I am having to attack Google to find out how the SR/BR(SR) arranged timbers under crossings. Were they (like the GWR) square to the end of the crossing or, in the case of a crossover, square to the main line throughout? Do the exit roads on the main line interlace with the turnout road etc etc. I realise that I don't have as many photos as I thought I had and no reference books like the excellent one published for the GWR. I admit I have only spent an evening trawling ...
