... + V- 10 LH template. First I think you have the blunt nose forward of the A timber centre distance wrong, you have set the dimension to 5.25 inches, this should be 3 inches( see page 31 of Mr Smith's book top of second column (top right hand corner). To correct this:-< geometry>< real>< V-crossing options>< customize V-crossing>< blunt nose> Change the value of the second item in this menu. One thing that's got me foxed at the moment, is the position of the fine point. By calculation from Mr Smith's book this should be forward of the blunt nose as follows: Fine point should be 11/16 inch x N, where N is the crossing angle therefore: 11/16= 0.6875 inch, 0.6875/12= 0.057292 foot, now at 4 mm scale, 0.057292 x 4= 0.2292 Therefore, position of fine point forward of blunt nose is: 11/16 inch x N= 0.2292 x 10= 2.292 mm at ...
... via Task Manager and then starting over again. This has happened 4 times so I must be doing something very wrong but it would be nice if I could get out of the situation without having to reload Templot and start shoving all over again. As a matter of interest where did the expression shoving originate, it has some interesting connotations. Regards, ken posted: 31 May 2010 12:41 from: Martin Wynne Hi Ken, Many thanks for reporting it. This is a long-standing bug which has had me foxed for years. See: topic 970- message 5680 Hopefully your detailed report may help me find it, so thanks again. As a matter of interest where did the expression shoving originate, it has some interesting connotations. If you have ever tried to move a 15ft crossing timber, you would know. If I checked every term against the urban dictionary, there would be nothing left! Finding suitable words to describe everything in Templot has been a constant headache. What's odd is how many ended up beginning with S - ...
... try and print again, the message is "Invalid request. The printer is in use". It completely locks out access to my printer and the only was I can get going again is to close Templot and start the process all over again. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, so I may have to repeat the process several times. I also have to unplug my printer both power and USB connections and essentially reboot the whole thing. Any ideas? I'm on XP SP3. I had some problems with the Fox Reader so had to remove it. Anything to do with that?

It is not accessed directly by Templot but is typically used by antivirus programs and printer drivers. It is also used by Internet Explorer and some IE add-ons. The problem you are seeing is caused by an ...

I 've had a look around the website to see what plain track might cost but Fox Lingo gives me some peculiar translations and I'm not quite sure what I'm looking at. I bet you're glad you haven't had to write Templot in German- your drop-down menus would have to be twice as wide.. Jim. posted: 21 Jul 2014 11:08 from: Paul Boyd It does irritate me when the masses moan about the cost of UK models- they've obviously not looked at European prices! We get some really quite stunning locos, for instance, for maybe £130 and people complain because ...
... was thumbing through 'Railway through Talerddig' in the garden this afternoon. Rob posted: 10 May 2020 09:57 from: Martin Wynne Rob Manchester wrote Amazing to think how many projects got built at all in those early railway days. I was thumbing through 'Railway through Talerddig' in the garden this afternoon. Hi Rob, And roads. Telford's suspension bridge over Menai was opened in 1826. This pic is from 2004. menai_2004_1500x800.jpg Telford died in 1834, so never saw a photograph of his bridge, digital or otherwise. Fox Talbot's first image was that very year. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menai_Suspension_Bridge cheers, Martin. posted: 10 May 2020 20:45 from: Rob Manchester Thanks Martin, Thanks for the pic. I know the parking spot well. A nice trip along through Beaumaris for fish&chips and a walk round the lighthouse overlooking Puffin Island. Lovely views back over to Llandudno from there. Think I need a trip.... Rob posted: 10 May 2020 20:52 from: Martin Wynne ...
... topic: 3361 Scissors Crossover posted: 3 Dec 2018 15:47 from: richard_t Hi I'm trying to design a scissors crossover for my fiddle yard. It should be fairly simple, all the turnouts are B-8, and the roads are straight, but I can't get the diamonds correct. I've isolated the 4 turnouts and include as an attachment. Also a quick screenshot: 499_031042_560000000.png I can manage the K crossings (but I've not included in them in the box attached), but the diamond V crossings have me foxed. And yes I could probably leave it like that, and just build in the vees, but I'd like it "proper", and there's a high chance I'd just blindly cut the rail, and start to assemble, to only then realise what I'd done. Thanks in advance.

I ...
