Hi!
How to clean wheels & slider, check and replace the rubber tires, disassemble and make full motor maintenace of Märklin locomotives. The tutorial includes both AC-locomotives, DELTA- and the different generations of DIGITAL locomotives. All in one!

Building a small bridge / jetty in wood from scratch
Hi! :)
I built a small bridge/jetty for my lake. I thought it could be a good starting point for others who haven´t started to build structures in wood yet. That´s why I made a video tutorial of the process. Hopefully it will inspire you to get started too. :)
Tutorial on ocean or lake water with waves - EASY & low-cost
Hi! I saw a forum thread some years ago on how to make water effect using toilet paper and glue. I have tested this method and now also used on my own layout to make water in my harbour. I think this method is close to "fool-proof" in getting a good and realistic result. It´s also obviously a very low cost method, so I thought it was a good idea to spread this method by making a video tutorial. I hope you like it.

Tutorial on static grass
Hi friends!
I bought myself a static grass applicator about a year ago and started out by making grass on my layout.
It was easy and fast, but the result was not very realistic. So... I tested, bought new grass and tested. Watched Youtube tutorials, read through forums and made new trials, until the result started to look good.
I made a short video tutorial communicating what I learned so far, so maybe if you´re thinking about start with static grass, this might be a short-cut to a better result from day one.
