Great video and tool tips as I am just now starting my very similar around the room layout using those same brackets, 1/2" ply and 1/2" foam base. Will definitely watch this another few times!
Ron. Have you thought about hanging sheets from the ceiling around your track to enclose the area when you are not using it to help keep dust down? You could also use a sheet around your helix to help hide it and also keep the dust off the track.
You commented about the downsloped angle but I must have missed what you did to get the top flat. Can you tell me the best way to flatten the top? I doubt if you just muscled it but maybe???
Actually, I did just muscle it. If you're not comfortable with that, however, you could use a shim on the back side of the cleat if you use a wood cleat like I did.
To remove spray paint you will need to use some sort of solvent like lacquer thinner, but use it sparingly on a cloth and carefully. As for no-ox, it is very safe.
Hi there, I am looking for tips in regards to running 2 continuous loops on my not yet built N gauge... Due to a severe lack of space, I am looking at a max size base size of 130cm X 65cms. It is DC and I was hoping to be able to run 2 trains in opposite directions on two tracks..... no specific location and no switching yard I am hoping to acquire a morley 2 track DC controller in order to run the locos Thanks

Looking at doing something similar to add on to my current layout. Thanks for the tips.
cool vid thanks lee
Thanks Ron , I may use this but with foam on the top.

Never forget foamboard!
That would certainly work well. That's what I would do if I were building something that I was going to scenic and not just a staging area.
@@RonsTrainsNThings I agree Ron !!
Hey do you have any "military" trains, with the big guns or rockets?! 😁👍✌
I do not have, but there are certainly those out there.
@@RonsTrainsNThings hey, I got two sets of All State Electric Trains No. 9625.
Do you know of these? 🙃
Hello Ron, I watched a old video of yours , asked a question on how you control your yard ,
I'm not sure exactly what you mean. What do you want to know?
Hi Ron I watched a old video of yours building a staging yard, just wanted to know how you controlled the yard, turnouts etc

Hi Ron , how can I take off some spray paint brístle of my track that I’ve accidentally put on while paint my diorama and is no-ox Id is safe? Thanks

What size shelf brackets do you use for your 20-in bench work
I would have to double check to be sure, but I believe they are 18 in brackets.

Hello. Can you tell which manufacturer's track and turnouts you use? Thank you
My track and turnouts are all Peko code 80.
Original content...? I hope you are not patterning off of others :) :) :)
Yeah, me too.
