GREAT job! David (at Anyrail) would be pleased to know that your tutorials caused me to buy the software :~) . I did notice that if you build the plywood table with discrete lines (Edit: rather than successive lines in a single line command), the shape can be grouped and ungrouped.
Thank you. Yes, lines can be grouped. When doing benchwork, room outlines and the like they can be grouped together to make it easier to move, etc. The ideas presented in the videos can be a little random. One day I just started making the videos without a grand plan. I mentioned to David not long after I started that when I run out of ideas, I might sit down, look at them all and put all of the tips and techniques into some kind of coherent order and redo all of the videos. A lot of work but I have also learned additional things since I started an it would be nice to get everything in order. Dave
@@steampoweredradio2981 I'm in the process of doing a per-video index of your stuff. It's pretty crude and only highlights the stuff I'm likely to forget, but it allows me to go back to the video to review the material I can't remember. It is rare to see a TH-cam contributor go back and improve their initial videos like you do. Not only does it take time, but it sometimes takes humility as well!
I was looking at the cost of Walthers turnouts and they are 31.98 manual per copy. The Marklin turnout is 24.95 manual and if you add a motor 23.95 for a total of 49.00. Could not find a Walthers turn out motor. Do you know the cost of turnout motor. You might consider stating cost of your designs.
Mike, I have no idea how much the turnout motor is. I have 35 older American Switch and Signal slow mo motors that I plan on reusing. No reason to state the price of anything I draw. They are all examples to give you an idea on how to do your own design. Besides, any price I look up and include in a video would probably have changed by the time I posted it and the video was viewed. Dave

The turnout motor is just under 20.00.
