- SCALE A BUILDING TO THE RIGHT SIZE!
Ive been working on the ‘ruins’ area and started the mockup buildings in the final area of the build. I agree with the comments received, it has been a monumental build, especially for such a small unit. However, the end is nigh. With the half term holiday, Im hoping to clear this unit this week, no promises. But it will be nice to move on to areas elsewhere.

Great build. Being a railway modeller about 50 years ago, back when ,I was 17 to 25 years of age that compromises had to be made in building my layout. As you said it is a representation of the actual buildings. I'm fine with that. Now that I'm 70 years of age, my projects, house or garden get done when they get done. Bill from California.
Absolutely Bill, modelling, gardening etc etc are all hobbies we do them for pleasure and relaxation, shouldn't ever be a chore.
All very interesting. Thanks. Regards, Stephen.
Inserting, good walk through it making building fit....😊
Id love to visit the area, but it is a fair ole treck for a short wander. The TV website and Google maps do really help.
Good to see this developing further. The additional work in the corner made a real difference but once you showed the carcass of the new building it really brought the scene alive. Hope you get some rest in your week off , but it will be good to see what you get done. Stephen
Thanks Stephen, yes I do need to slow down, school can be quite tiring. Model making is quite relaxing though.
Hello John, really enjoying watching this build the level of detail you have achieved is amazing.
Bless you, so very kind of you to say. Im so glad you are enjoying the build.
Hi John! That's an interesting approach to scaling buildings, and a one I'll have to remember! It sure beats counting layers of bricks! Cheers, Ian.
Oh blimey Ian, counting bricks will surely send you 'boss' eyed. I can only just see the bricks on N gauge brick paper let alone count them. 1.5mm x 0.8mm each brick. Ill stick with tje doorways lol.
Looking great John. This building project just gets better and better…. Steve 👍👍
Thanks Steve. How you doing?
@@piccadillymodelrailways I’m good thanks John. Hope you are too. I’m going to Model Rail Scotland in Glasgow on Friday.
Doing in one day travelling by train. Should get around five hours there. Looking forward to my little adventure. I got return tickets for £43. Result 🤣👍
The detail you are achieving is amazing. 👍
Thank you Mike, I think the 3d printer really helps. Glad you like it.
I really love how this is coming along. It's going to be a tremendous scene. I like your approach to getting them sized. We have a similar approach, I think John.
Thanks Michael, yes, doorways are one of the few standard things we can rely on.
Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
All looking good John and enjoy the week off.
Cheers Kev
Thx Kev
That really is coming along nicely, it's looking great, lovely work 🙂👍....cheers James 🙂👍
Thank you James, so glad you like it.
@@piccadillymodelrailways I'm really enjoying seeing it develop 🙂👍
The damaged building looks quite impressive
Thank you, very kind of you to say
Dear John, great vid! Love the way you did the ruins of the mill in the front of the scene. Very interesting how you did the ratios of the little structures on the right hand side of the mill. Humbly think a tiny bit of foreground compression can help to even the height of the little structures in comparison and relation to the mill. Very much looking forward to seeing the entire scene in place. Cheerio
Thanks Vincent, I was thinking that, but as its only two storiesits hard to hide. Doors need to be right and would look odd if they weren't. The main mill buildings is taller, but I removed the top storey so not to dominate so much. This building is quite small and easy to see around so Im not worried.
Good work John. I have purchased a Creality Ender-3 V3 KE printer very happy so far. Thanks for you advice. Cheers Peter.
Good for you, Im looking a Creality Print now, hoping its better than the online slicer.
Hi John, some lovely details there, it really does add something extra to the scene. Looking forward to seeing how the new buildings turn out, have a good week off. It works opposite for me when Mrs Exehaven is on her school holidays, my feet don’t touch the ground and not much gets done on the layout, lol!
Cheers John, John
Ha ha ha, the joys of marriage. Enjoy!
😁👍
Yes I do all this myself at Coppull Libary in Lancashire this is ongoing showing the Adults how to make scratch built models Bill
Fantastic, good to hear how the hobby is growing. Good for you!
@@piccadillymodelrailways yes it is gives you a great feeling knowing I can pass skills on to other people like you your selfs Bill
When I read all these comments many a time I like to meet up with people who right then to talk and discuss different things and help people out in different ways to achieve their goal to be a good model Bill
Brilliant video, super interesting and it helps a lot when considering a layout, so thank you! :)
Bless you, thank you. So glad it was helpful.
Looks good to me John. Now the tunnel, here's my theory 😂 I think it's where the smuggler's of New Mills stored their whiskey and contraband after robbing the boats sailing up the Goyt and from the packhorse trains moving between Cheshire and Buxton. I can just see all the highwaymen sneaking into the tunnel at the edge of dark 😅 keep up the good work and we seem to have a warley replacement show in November at the NEC cheers Andy
Lol, what a vivid imagination, but I have to dispell that theory about sailing up the Goyt. There's a weir, hmmm yes a um weir, a weir. Did I say there was a weir. Lol Why, would ANYONE even robbers, thieves and vagabonds sail up the Goyt, which isnt that deep to um crash, run a ground or break their boat crossing... A weir.
Now if you said using a hot air ballooon or they flew in via albatross. yeah... totally believable. ha ha ha.
@@piccadillymodelrailways in a fantasy world anything goes John 😂 but I did mention the packhorse trains which did pass through the area regularly, but take your point on the boats 😂😂
Lol dont forget the elephants and the trecherous white walkers.
You do know that Google Eart/Maps comes with a scale drawing tool? Great video
Hi yes, I need to scale buildings to fit the area ive got. Thank you though for commenting.
This build just gets better and better - the detail you are incorporating has to be admired. Looking forward to seeing it "planted" on the layout. Cheers Euan
Thanks Euan, me too and never touch it again. Lol (well... until a train derails).
