My new layout design.

I bought a Brother label maker and it helps a lot to identify cables especially when most of them are red.

Can't afford to be so fancy.
I'd rather buy tools.

Hi everybody,
been a bit quiet here, to much work and no time for the important things in life.
Monday I received a small parcel with some items.
Including backdrops. 
So tonight I temporally put them up using prestix to check how it looks and where I have to shorten them.
Also have to consider the heights.
What do you think?

[capeklr]

This is where I potentially have the biggest overlap.
The red line is where the other backdrop ends.

Hi Jörg,
The backdrops look great. A little trimming and camo, big trees and you will have it look great. 
Ciao

Hi Jörg...... Looks great 

Nice challenge to blend them all together, but it will look awesome.

Cheers, Evert

Hi Jörg, if you havent removed the press stick yet, may I suggest you do it soon. It leaves an oily mark behind to remind you forever.
Stay cool. 
Ciao

It leaves an oily mark behind to remind you forever.

I know that, I used very little prestix so the back drops are falling down one by one on their own already.

Hi everybody,
little time for the hobby, but did try something over the weekend.
Interior lights in the houses, in the past all we did was stick a bulb socket into the hole at the bottom and everybody was happy.
Today we have something called LED's.
So I took a strip and cut off a section, prepped a styrene strip to glue between the walls and glued my Led strip to this.

Here's the strip fitted to the first house.
In the photo only the front part of the roof is on and its held in place by prestix.

Here you can see the light strip from behind.

Was lucky on bid or buy the other day and today I received some post.
I've been looking for this Loco for years and now I got it.
Fantastic condition.

Good Morning Jörg,

Lights lookking great I also use that but I paint my lights with brown paint to dull them a bit and to get a warm colour.

Awesome Loco...... I love it.

Hop you have a good day and speak again soon.
Cheers,
Evert

Wow the lights do look good

Where did you get them from?

[capeklr]

Hi Wesley,

these I bought from Eco Led a few years ago.
Still have a few off cuts left so used one here.
Warm white with silicon sealed water proof strip.
These strips come in 5 meters and can be bought just about anywhere nowadays.
