Hi Colin, very busy, I see. Nice demo of diy ethernet cables, and I love those little plugs you put on the end of the wires, making it all very neat. All the best. John
Hello Colin Good news about your sister wishing her a speedy recovery at the rehabilitation hospital. Nice progress on the layout Lighting upgrades on the upper section makes a big difference. Nice tutorial on wiring a Ethernet cable. Take care all the best
Hi Colin - must have been frustrating when the issue arose with the helix - main thing is you've got it sorted. Good to see progress on the layout. Cheers Euan
@thegrowler-blackwoodngauge Hi Euan it was a bit frustrating after all the testing. I can't have one bit of track not to work were it's hard to get to, but it's good to find it now. Colin
Greetings Woodthorp International and hello Colin 👋 That is hopeful news on your sister 🤞 fingers crossed that the physio can do their magic 😇 Excellent tips on wiring too 👍 we all end up wit dodgy knee's 🦵 in this hobby 😳 Very best wishes from the Emerald Isle ☘️
@Chris-BognorRegis Hi Chris hope I didn't boggle you to much. Are you going to the International n gauge weekend after next. Do hope you and your wife and the dog are good. Colin
Hi Colin! That's a great solution using the magnets! It's always good to be able to make the wiring easily accessible, as none of us are getting any younger! I'm also looking into trying to make it easy to get to wires and things like servo decoders so I can reprogram them! I'm currently thinking of using Velcro to hold small wooden boards, but those magnets may be a better solution! Can you share what type they are, and where you got them please? Good news that your sister is now in rehabilitation! Those guys can work wonders! All the best, Ian, P.S. Forgot to say that your bag or servo cables arrived! Thank you! :)

I'm really enjoying the hobby at the moment even more than usual. If there is anything else I may have that I can send, let me know do ask, because I'm changing the way I run trains I have alot of thing's. Colin
@@collinsngauge5493 - Brilliant! Thanks for the link mate! Please don't tempt me with other stuff! Lol! I still need to pay you for what you've already sent me! Drop me an email with the price! Cheers, Ian.
@@collinsngauge5493 - Hi Colin! I replied to this the other day to say thanks for the link - but it doesn't appear to have stuck! Definitely enjoying the hobby at the moment, glad you are too! Not sure what else I need at the moment! Just drop me an email with how and what to pay you for what you've already sent! :)
With wiring like this, the mostly white wire is the predominant. The one mostly colour with a fleck of white is the second of the pair. Difference between T568-A and B is that one scheme is conventional and the other has what's known as a network twist.

@Wickford_N_Gauge Hi Paul and hello from Woodthorp International. It is hopeful with my sister. I'm hoping doing the wiring this way will help. Colin
Absolutely mind boggling Colin. It is quite obvious your really enjpying yourself, long may it last.
