My projects

Wed, 2012-06-20 18:28 — dkramer

This project has been on my mind for quite some time. About ten years ago my grandfather passed away and my father and I inherited his stable of german locos and cars in H0 scale. We enjoyed running them on the São Paulo Model Railway club (Sociedade Brasileira de Ferromodelismo), but since I went to University they sat on our shelves (and I dont mean Shelf Layout), until I got a job and decided to build a layout, but for that I bought a NCE powercab.

Soldering Station

Wed, 2012-06-20 04:23 — Dispatcher

Hi

I am after suggestions on buying a soldering station.  I have used various size soldering irons in the past but I would prefer an adjustable station.  Any suggestions on brand, heat range, wattage, etc?  It would be used for (in the future) surface mounts (presumably needing a lower heat setting) up to  soldering PCB ties to rail.  I am after as much information as I can get before deciding on the type to buy.

Static grass and FusionFiber

Tue, 2012-06-19 10:17 — wsdimenna

After spreading the tinted fusionfiber, add the static grass with gun while the fiber is still wet. 

 

The process was continued and went very fast.  No need to spread glue or worry about it setting up. You can do a very large area. Just keep the fusion fiber wet by misting prior to adding static grass.  You can add a light amount of ground covers prior to adding static grass.  

ALCO and MLW models

Tue, 2012-06-19 00:12 — berdoni

Hello all,

I'm interested for some Greek diesel locos from Alco. The model  numbers according to wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ALCO_diesel_locomotives) are DL537/ DL543 and MLW MX627/MX636. I'm wondering if I can find in US e-shops the undecorated chassis and bogies of these locos.

thanks

Nikos

Glossary?

Mon, 2012-06-18 16:00 — astroboy

Can someone point me to a glossary of railroad terms, (model or prototype)?  A lot of the time when reading posts or articles in the magazine, I'm scratching my head, thinking, "What's THAT mean?  Also, is there a search function for the forums?  I couldn't find one.

Thanks,

Jeff
