Looking great Mike good to see you it always nice to put a face to a voice I followed Ken for a while and enjoy his new adventures in retirement I retired nine years ago and miss it I was well past retirement age mowing work from my arm chair alot
Really enjoyed the talk about your grandfather and the overview of what you've got so far. Amazing seeing all of the aspects of your project. I love the landing strip addition to the landscape. I'm an instrument rated pilot myself. You have so much invested, that's very apparent. It's fascinating to think of how this is going to look once you've finished. This is all brand new to me. I've only watched your channel and your brothers (Ken) channel. Both are fun, to me. So I don't really have any valuable/useable ideas for you, but I'm here everytime you post something and look forward to your journey. Love the trains, racing, airplanes, buildings, scenery, and all of the little things you tell us about as you work through this. The layout is amazing. Going to be sweet watching it grow. God bless.
Hey Mike, Jamal here! Love what you are doing. I am new to this as well. Here are some tips for you. Don’t paint the grass areas. Use dirt or grout from your local Home Depot. Then put the grass down on top of the dirt or grout makes it look more realistic. The waterfall before you go waste resin which I have done. Seal the area with plaster of Paris and make sure you don’t have any leaks in your area before pouring the resin. Take some water pour it in there if the water leaks you will be able to see what the leaks are prior to pouring resin.
A small grandstand for radiator springs is a must and would look cool! As for the airfield, a building, or 2 for hangers. Matchbox planes may work. Cabins, there are different kits from different companies depending on what you’re looking for
I've been watching your brother Ken for a while now and I've been watching your videos for a couple of months now. I see you have cars that were the first ones that I have. Santa Fe chief, Virginia Hopper, Parena box car, another box car and red caboose. Takes me back. 1975.
From time to time you could clean the wheel on your engine. Removing the carbon buildup. I used dental tools to assist in the process of cleaning and removing the carbon. And then using them for other things as well. Running an electric outlet under the table to give you easier locations to plug in. And having only one power cord to the house outlet from the table. Put a mural on the wall. I like your idea of the race track, and airfield. It’s looking good. 👍

Thanks. I enjoy your comments. Thanks for watching.
Do you have a plane? What do you fly?
@@HOScale-bd1yd No, I rent. Most experience in Cessna's and a little multi-engine with Piper.

I am looking out for that from one of your videos.

Thanks for the help. Have you ever used an alcohol wet paper towel and run the engine onto it. Cleans well.
@@HOScale-bd1yd As long as you’re not getting any spark
you and your brother should do a video together.
Any ideas?
