😮 Great Video. I was looking for a DIY way to make my own tracks.The only option for me was to import the Nickel Silver HO Scale Tracks, from Germany or China. In India it's very expensive to import from these countries. Now I am going to make it myself. Thank you Once again.
@@viewer7200 To complete this process, the sheet will have to be passed through the metal sheet bender several times at different angles, If you make a railroad by hand then it may get jerky, that's why if you make it with metal sheet bender then it will be jerk free.
@@mdsahir3156 Ok, but the tracks are made out of wire, not sheet. Anyway, the turn radius is more than 3 m, so the curvature of each track segment is very gentle.
@@viewer7200 I don't understand how to explain to you, although I was also very fond of making train and also make all the parts of the train, but I used to get stuck on the rails, then after thinking a lot, the idea came that a metal sheet bender can be used 😁😁 Sahir
Thank you very much. I made train wheels, so next I will build a loco with rolling stock. The wheels roll smoothly on their own, we'll see how the whole train will roll. I hope to have more time this year to finish this "train project".
What exactly is G scale? I believe 73mm is G scale 'standard guage' or 4' 8 1/2" in US. Some call it F scale. There may be other variations around the world. 45mm is considered G scale 'narrow guage' or 36" in US althought it doesnt exactly fit mathmatically. No matter what you decide is G scale, if it makes you happy, go with it! I found the article very interesting and see a man using his talents and available material to achieve something that is truely amazing! Keep up the good work!
New videos are coming, but more slowly because I am busy with other stuff... Skills come from weeks and months of intense thought process about a specific technical solution, then trial, and error.
Konstruktivist Neo I hope to see new videos soon. How did you gain the knowledge of this? I mean, how do you know what you are doing will reflect onto the real world? Were you university trained?
@@leo32190 I studied in university languages, history, geography, and a bit of engineering, but today I am a high school teacher. Not always what I do reflects onto the real world. Before recording the video of the DIY rail and wheel method, I used to make rails with a totally different process, but it was time consuming, labour intensive, and noisy (i was hammering sheet metal strips into 'T' rail shape in a wise. Only 4 inches of rail after 10 minutes of hammering). For many years, I thought about finding a better, faster, easier, and cheap way to make DIY rails just as good as the retail LGB.

your idea of making rails with wire is just awsome
Thank you very much
I dig this man. Ive been looking to turn my backyard to accommodate a g scale track. Really doing it for my son but I’ve become interested.
Thank you. More vids to come.
in theory, with my DIY method, for 24in of track with 24 popsicle sticks as ties, this 2ft section would cost ~$1 in materials. So 200ft ~$100.

Thank you very much for your great comments.
More videos are coming.
Amazing idea 😊
Thank you
Greate work. Beautifull creation
Thank you very much.
Any video on turnout and frog point?
I shot all video parts last August, which I have to edit. Now that you've reminded me, I'll get on it :)))
Can u use metal bender using bearing for make rails 🤔
You can, but not necessary. It is easy to bend by hand.

@@mdsahir3156 Sheet metal bender is very useful, but it is an expensive tool. I do not have one. I try to work with the most basic tools.
How did you make the rails
This is the first time I’ve seen someone make their own track. Do the trains run on it? Even if it’s just for show it is cool
Thank you very much. I made train wheels, so next I will build a loco with rolling stock. The wheels roll smoothly on their own, we'll see how the whole train will roll. I hope to have more time this year to finish this "train project".
I like your advance
Thank you very much
Your video is awesome! Do the rails hold up well to outdoor weather and resist corrosion?
book mark for when i make tracks . thanks .
Thank you

hats of to u sir
Thank you
Why not just purchase the ready made tracking?
Because they are expensive and developing a DIY technology is much more satisfying.
How to make turnout and frog point in DIY project.
A bit later, thank you.
CM = ?

@@viewer7200 okay Thanks👍
Nice
Nice how easy
Thank you
How did you make turnout and frog point using popstick and GI wire for HO Scale.
I work only in G-scale. HO is way too tiny. Sorry :)
G scale means 40mm wide rail
no, 45 mm between rails
No more videos?. Also where did you learn all of this skills?

Thank you for the answers.
Still no new videos 😢
