The best entertainment on RUclips. Better value than Netflix. HELLO :-)
Well I just dropped in to see what you were doing. I have been scratch building HO RR since 1960's, so I didn't expect much for myself, but your on my watch list (for some time) and just wanted to see what was up.... wow hats off to you. Good basics and less expensive options, great. I enjoy the hobby and watching others (1st timers especially) getting involved. I have noted over the years an increase in the number of women that visit our club open houses and show an interest in the hobby. I think your comment about family enjoying a project is true. Thanks for sharing, just an old man for Oregon, USA.
Great video!
Do not forget a Swedish flagpole in your landscape 🇸🇪👍🏻
Yes those noch kits seemed very nicely detailed right out of the box. Looking great.
Burnt Umber, the modeller's best friend!
great video. The noch kits look great. Thanks for the explanation on the cardboard. Now it makes perfect sense!
Thanks martin, much appreciated. Take care , from South Africa
Thanks for teaching! Lots of techniques!!
I heard u use the word boring!!! NOTHING you do is ever boring my happy chappie friend!! 😎
That's awesome for you to say...I feel the same..I don't even make stuff, at all, but he hooked me a long time ago.
Hello Martin. Another great episode in a great series. I always learn something new. I was amazed when you painted in the road cracks prior to painting the road gray. I had never seen that before. It was very effective. I look forward to the next episode. Bye.
You have some excellent techniques in this tutorial that I had not thought of using before but I will certainly tryout. Thanks for sharing these ideas.
Brilliant, watching from Perth Australia and am about to embark on my own first permanent layout. Your hints, tips and tutorials are very helpful
Thanks for another great episode, Martin! Lots of good demonstrations of your methods. Also, it was fascinating to see the Noch kit using laser-cut cardboard. The results were very nice indeed. Cheers from Wisconsin.
Great Martin! Danke!
Thank you for this excellent video. Greetings from Brazil.
Another great tutorial, many thanks!
Great work as always
Absolut Perfect Layout.
Martin, as always -- you inspire! --dunc
Great videos Martin
Perfect !
Well done 👍🏻
Great video hope the railroad goes well
Congrats👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 its great.
Tbh your one of the most creative guy ive ever seen
Hello Martin, I like it. Many greetings Miller👍🚂👍🚂
Like the update very much.
Nice to see 2 rail covered :-D
Excellent video. Very realistic models. Really like your ideas using cardboard.
Excellent all round thanks
Du bist der Beste 🥰👍👍👍
I saw you replied within the last 10 minutes or so......SO I HOPE YOU see this, because I'm a Patreon who just loves all you do and how you present yourself and it will make me very happy to know you read this. Hell, I don't even make stuff....but I love watching you make awesome stuff!
Another helpful video. And I bookmarked your website too - it's very well set out.
Wow great video 👍👍👍
Nice!!
You are a genius!!!!!
great video!
I wouldn't put too much attention in comments criticising the material choice. Everybody more able with building up a layout, should be capable using materials of their own choice. Of course this will then also upgrade the durability. I choose to use your initial layout to extend my actual setup, but therefor I will have to make so adaptations to it. I still love seeing how you go on with the layout and enjoy every episode.
Nice video, as always. I prefer Wago clamps over old-fashioned luster terminals as they do not require any tools. Only downside: You can't screw them to the base as you did with the lusters.
good vis of a layout
Super👍👍👍👍👍 Fim🚂👮✋
Best video🤝🇧🇷
Thanks🎂from🇩🇰
Very nice
Still good job and explanations.
magnifico
merci :)
Wow nice video pakistan miss you
Hej
For the house with light, i recommand to cover some of the windows with black paper on the inside, because you almost never see a house where every single window is illuminated.
I recognize the "This Side Up" on your poly ISO insulation. You have to make sure that side is up when putting on "Hot Tar" roofs on low slope roofs.
I never did hot tar, but I have laid and mechanically fastened millions of square feet of Poly ISO when I installed EPDM (Rubber) and TPO (Thermal Plastic) low sloped roofs.
I don't recommend using any Blue, Pink, White or ISO insulation on layouts. If you have a electric short they all start to burn at a very low temp. The Blue and Pink extruded polystyrene will melt and run while burning causing quick spread of fire. The Expanded polystyrene (bead board) comes in various densities. The less dense, the faster it burns. Same as for the Blue and Pink, but modelers probably couldn't or wouldn't afford the high density grade. Poly ISO doesn't melt and run like the other 3, but you have to have it encapsulated (like between steel roof decking and fire rated rubber) to get the fire rating. And once it flames it's very hard to put out.
In most places in the USA it is illegal to install any of these in homes or business in a vertical orientation.
While I don't have a layout now due to cost and size limitations, I did have one some years back of moderate size. My insurance company made me prove I used screen and plaster and not any of the 4 insulation's mentioned or they would cancel my policy for fire hazard reasons. Even spray expanding foam in a can was a risk to use.
So anyone building a layout should check with their insurance carrier first. If a fire does happen, they may deny coverage and you could be out a lot more than just your layout!
Hello Martin,
nice video again, but please do not use luster terminals with fine-stranded conductors! You need ferrules or better use cage-clamps.
Greetings,
A
What is a solution with a 3 rail for the 'road between the C rails. When you put it like you show on the video, the middle is covered. Greetings from Belgium.
14:35 the drop lol 😀🤣👍
Hello, where do you buy you LED strips, do you have a link to it? Thanx you very mutch:) and keep going. I like your videos, the wheather videos are my favorite :D.
Gr marcoes
I bought the floor styrofoam too, but it is in PET plastic. PET refuses acrylic based paints, i try to paint it by spray cans, but it literally destroyed! So i use it only to make rail basement, then covered with fake marble effect adhesive film, lastly covered with ballast. So i can paint the rails without damage PET below...
.can i use kelloggs frosties cardboard instead of classic cornflakes, thanks
I have the Märklin C-track system. How would you recommend building the tracks into the floor as you do at 20:49 in the video, since the C-tracks have a middle rail?
Perhaps a stupid idea, use metal band on the central picko, then use conductive paint.
On some previous video about his harbor on his main layout, you can see a metal strip in the center.
Absolute valid question and looking forward to your idea's Martin. Myself I still doubt using Märklin C- or K-track. Nevertheless both have a centre track. And since my plan get a reverse or turning loop, a centra track avoid a lot of troublesome electrical issues with short-cuts. Thanks for commenting in advance!!
Very good and faller cars sytem digital?
Can we see the other structures?
Even if you don't video the entire process, the German kits are available on eBay, but not much build information....
I love these continental kits from Vollmer Faller Noch and Auhagen...they can become a collectors item in themselves. The website has the pdf for the instructions which can help to see what is involved. Its important to look for bargains though eg that Noch Amzell kit is 46 euros! Viessmann are the new owner of Vollmer so check their website. Their new 2021 catalogue is out and it is fantastic. I just ordered a load of old Vollmer city buildings to make a diorama. The Vollmer build quality is very good too
Hej Martin! Bra tips att färga sand. Vilken kakelfog använder du, eller är det pigment för kakelfog (om det finns)? Händer det nåt med färgen när man lägger på limvatten?
Tack! Det är kakelfog. Inget speciellt. Ja, färgen mörknar när man väter kakelfogen. Vid lagertjocklek större än 1mm bildas torksprickor i gruset. Dessa tas bort genom att fylla dem med nytt lager sand och vätning med lim-vatten.
@@marklinofsweden aha, då kanske det blir bökigt att använda till ballastering, för det lär ju bli tjockare. Men jag tror på idén, manskulle kanske prova att blanda lite torrpigment i sanden?
Hej på dig. Nu i covid tider har jag också plockat upp en gammal hobby :) Har en fråga: vad är det för 12V LED du använder och var har du köpt dem? Verkar oerhört praktiskt att kunna klippa en lagom bit för att lysa upp ett hus. Kanonbra videos du har lagt upp. Har nog kollat på de flesta under julledigheten. Tack på förhand /Per
Hej! Jag köper dem på rulle om 10meter för 25kr. Du laddar ner en app som heter ”Wish”. Där finns ”warm white LED strip 12VDC”. Vill du inte ”appa” har Clas Ohlson samma grej, men tio gånger dyrare.
I know this is probably the wrong video to ask this in but does anyone know who makes that little red streamlined railcar we see in the intro, I live in Britain so don't know where to start looking but I love it.
I belive it's a Trix number 22271.
@@modelrailwayfantasia yes but brand are they.
Trix 22271 German Transport Diesel Railcar BR 640 of the DB, and in ho scale. A nice one.
Do we need to the lighting each house seperate or can you hookup all house lighting to one power source?
- Yes, the recommended 12VDC/8W powersupply can power about 30 LEDs. I therefore think it is enough for the entire layout.
@@marklinofsweden thank you this very useful information 😃
Hej märklin of sweden, jag undrar om man kan köra tekniska tåg på M räls?? Mvh Simon.
Looks good Martin!
What is the thing you use with the chinchila sand ? The Black powder :)
Hi! It’s ”Tiles Grout”. The compound you use to fill the gaps between the tiles in your shower/bathroom wall.
@@marklinofsweden thanks for fast answer :-)
What about recycling an old computer power supply? They have several 5 and 12 volt outputs in case you need more than one supply for each. The 12 volt power supply is putting out around 670 miliamps of current to get the 8 watt output.
Hi Paul! Thank you for that idea! It’s great! It requires a bit of knowledge about both computer and electronics though.. Yupp! The link to Weicon is present both as a link presented in the video as well as in the video description. Stay safe and have a super-nice weekend! 👍😊
I have some laying around for years, never used them. Too much cumbersome.
I have so much cell phone (5v), razo, laptop and others power packs (some 12v) in stock, it is much more easy to reuse these power packs than one from desktop PC.
For the big LED illumination, it may be interesting, but then you must know how much power the +12V rail of power supply can give.
Witch day you gonna upload a new vid its taking a long time. The vids are amazing
„Schluck und Specht“ 😄. It’s a wordplay on „Schluckspecht“. „Booze & Hound - Liquor trade, LP“
can i hawe link of L.E.D. pls
every time when you do the intro, iam asking myself, why are there never running trains in the back? ;)
Hi! Thank you for commenting! Well, I’ve tried it.. but.. Because it distracts me from making a good presentation and the trains makes noice which ruins the voice recording I avoid it. That’s why!
ruclips.net/video/XQYxjBVWilc/видео.html to prevent this glossiness you can prime the surface with a spray can primer and then apply the Noch asphalt paint.
HALLO ,
marklinofsweden. Ich finde das Tutorial für den kleinen Hobel nicht. Hilfe erbeten. Bitte den Link zum Tutorial.
Marklinofsweden:
"I don´t show assembling houses, it would be boring"
Marklinofsweden 5 secs later:
*assembles house* xD
but all in one, it´s a great video. Like
No, he said he would not show the entire process.
True! A full assembly would be like 20 minutes video alone..
@@marklinofsweden Ok ok, haha..... calm down boys.....
Are you using DC or AC trains?
Neither. I run digital trains using DCC or Mfx protocol on 2-rail H0-scale tracks.
@@marklinofsweden can this be done with any marklin loco?
@@marklinofsweden Thank you for the info much appreciated.
I notice you avoided to mention the makeup sponges and applicator’s are also readily available in your wife’s makeup draw haha 😂
Make up sponges and applicators available on shops and on your wife make up box set
Thanks for speak english
