Would anyone be interested in a panel that has two BDL 168 boards pre-wired up on it? Here's a pic before I added the 2nd board (I'll post a...
Don't forget you don't *need* to put metal wheels on every car for block detection. I didn't. Put some on the last car or two and then on a car...
If you posted a full track plan it might make it a whole lot easier to plot your blocks out. I've had reversing loops in the past but I've only...

I realize you have your track nailed down already, but if you solder the flex track pieces together before you curve them, that will help keep the...
Good news! I'm be turning in a deposit today for a new leased house that has enough space that I'll be able to put the layout in it's own room...

Seriously?? all this over some smilies?
Then go to another forum if they bother you that much. You do know there's a "More" button on the first pop-up window of smilies right?...
Here's a look at the new panel with all of the LED holders and (most) pushbuttons installed. I came up short two pushbuttons, so I need to...
If you want smilies that bad, why not find your own? [IMG] For example: http://www.smileyvillage.com/
Work on the control panel is progressing too. Here's a look a the panel after I drilled all the holes. [IMG] [IMG] I've since added the final...

Next up I began working on placement of structures. I dug a few small items that's been packed away for a while and placed it out on the...
