After recommending that Rob in Texas consider adding a webcam to the club I began to think about doing the same. There are a lot of inexpensive video monitors that are either usb or wireless connected but few talk about compatibility with apps like Skype. 

Is anyone using a webcam to share or monitor the layout?

Does the pan & tilt feature work as advertised?

What would you chose to allow an interactive experience as Skype provides?

Thanks!

Hi there,

I live in Minnesota (Minneapolis) and have been modeling for over 30 years and would like to know if there are any active groups in Minnesota that are accepting new members, have a layout, need work done, operating sessions etc.? I've looked around the web and have found some sites, but they all look like they are many years old and when I contact the moderator I never hear back.

Any good Minnesotan's out there that know any? I model the Milwaukee Road in the 60's - 70's.

Thanks,

Tim

This is somewhat of a continuation question from a previous one about decal application.

For an existing, finished paint job, are you better off applying dry transfers instead of (waterslide) decals?

I ask this based on decals needing a glossy surface and that decals will be glossy and show edges when applied. I've never done dry transfers, but I figured they'd be a better application on a paint job you don't plan to touch ever again.

Thanks!

Checking in from Belleview Florida. This is my first chance to get online, still no power. Unable to do any modeling, but by plugging in my laptap to the generator I was able to watch Mike Confalone videos. Life is slowly starting to return to normal even though Duke says they wont have our power on til Sunday.
