Nice workshop and very nicely organized, unlike my garage which just has stuff (I was thinking of a different S word) every where :(

I have been wanting a place I could spread out and have things put away neatly

GANDY DANCERS ARE ONLY BLACK MEN. WHITE MEN WERE THE CAPTAINS. THAT'S AMERICAN HISTORY.

You've once again shown that model railroading "can be fun", Gandy.

Thank's Bruce, I've been asked to do another one in the fall. I have a few improvements I want to make to it before then.

We unfortunately just caught the tail end,or is it a caboose?,of your demo in VB yesterday. Hopefully you will host another in the future. Glad to know there are mrr's around these parts. Keep up the good work,I'll try to catch you at the farmers market some day. Have a good sunday.

I'm always open to do another one. Would like to try a different location maybe. If you know of a place that would like to host a presentation, let me know and have them email me. [email protected]

Gandy, I'm glad that you found that video of mine helpful. Very nicely executed! That is a fine looking evergreen tree.

Hey, I've borrowed a few of your ideas, so you should get the credit.

Model trees are nearly always made too small by modelers. E.g., a Silver Maple, a relatively common tree around here, and not especially large or small, is about 60-80' tall at maturity. In O scale, that would be 15 - 20" tall. I've never seen anyone do trees that are that big relative to the primary subject of their scenes. (I don't do model RR anymore, mostly figure and vehicle modeling, but the same thing happens in both.) As you note, though, trees are mostly fractal, so they tend to look similar regardless of scale. Interestingly (at least to me), people tend to do cars too large relative to people. (It's common for people to use 1:43 vehicles with figures that are generally scaled at something like 1:64.) I would find it fascinating to see a G scale layout with a couple of hundred 4' tall model trees, though.

A good discussion on scale, Gandy.

Sadly, no. Small town in northern Maine, and a dying town at that. I could probably list 100 different detail things I could use.

I enjoyed the overview of the layout. That sign for Castaway is going to look great. Now, I have to go collect some appropriate tree bark it seems.🙂
