I have been a software engineer for 30+ years and this show is extremely inspiring. Engineering is engineering and the level of detail and thought put into this project are exceptional.

Well thanks KW! Engineers do think alike... I believe they are born not made. There are guys who are wired to understand and appreciate how I think....and those who think I'm wasting time. I know though, that it's not a waste of time because I have fun doing it! Please pass our LK videos to friends who may enjoy them and subscribe. Thanks for your comment my friend!

I watched your videos all afternoon long and enjoyed every minute of it. I can remember when a slot car track existed back in the mid 70’s when I was a kid something I haven seen in years. Have you ever considered a car with a small camera mounted in or on it to capture another prospective of your masterpiece of a track? Another consideration would be to put small cell phone cameras around the track itself, as if you didn’t have enough to do.

If you could also compile a book of all the sketches for ideas and materials used, that's definitely a must have for any scale track builders.

Ant1 , The canopies over the team's prepping cars came from a fellow in Germany or Austria that had seen my web site. He had printed, on 8.5X11 card stock, 5 different ones spread out in blank. They could be cut out and folded into very realistic canopies. However they were all in 1/24 scale. I had them for 15 years before I made copies of them on my own cardstock reduced to the correct size. The support poles, cross braces and lighting I scratch built. Thanks for noticing them.

@jimmyattard1446
@jimmyattard1446 2 года назад
Steve you are not going to believe this ...but in an effort to have very few figures alike, I not only decapitate half of them and swap heads but I have cut torsos at the beltline to revise the posture of some of the figures' bodies. Crazy I know. But, thanks for noticing. Please pass our LK videos to friends who may enjoy them and subscribe. Thanks for your comment my friend!

@@jimmyattard1446 But where do you buy the figures?
@jimmyattard1446
@jimmyattard1446 2 года назад
I had a dozen Monogram figures from when I was a kid that I made molds of and cast more in resin. Also I found at dollar stores "construction" figures that with a lot of carving were made into men I could use on the track. Oh, about ten years ago MRRC reproduced the Monogram figures for a short while. I bought about 40 figures from MRRC which were hard to find. Also WW2 war figures in 1/37th scale can be used. Tank and truck crews are what I bought some of. Some of the seated figures are O scale train people designed to be waiting at the station. Hope this helps Steve.

@jimmyattard1446
@jimmyattard1446 2 года назад
John ....I'm so thrilled that you noticed that! The green guy looking up was looking up at a crane. He was included in my Renwal truck kit that I got for my 12th birthday. I'm 69 now so that shows how long I've had him! I actual decapitate most of my figures and try to turn their heads looking in different directions. The figure looking down was meant, by Monogram, to be lifting a tire onto a car in the pits. With a bit of heat and cuts in his torso I got him to seem like he is looking down. Thanks my friend...your noticing it made all the work worth it. Go back and forward our videos to more of your friends because the guys plan to do more in the future.

Great Lesson Jimmy but, how did you make the Orange & White Barriers there @ 24:00, this video? Love the Place Mat fencing, gonna have to try that, the copper connectors, Awesome drums but, those can probably get pricey these days 🤣! I have to Agree with you on the finding Weird things and using them for the track. I work for Enterprise Car Sales and the things that people leave behind after buying a " Gently " used rental car 🤣, they can leave behind some CrAzY Junk!

@jimmyattard1446 2 года назад
The highway barriers painted red and white that you asked about Django are made from plaster of Paris. I carved the original out of wood then I made a mold using that "blue stuff" product I highlighted in the work bench video. In the future we might do a segment on making a mold and casting some more highway barriers for you to see. Please pass our LK videos to friends who may enjoy them and subscribe.

@jimmyattard1446
@jimmyattard1446 2 года назад
Well Cl1ck3r, All my signs were done by a good friend who was a graphic artist in Juliet, Illinois. I spent a weekend with him 22 years ago finding appropriate sponsor logos on the inyernet and reducing them all down to 3 sizes in 1/32 scale. We worked over 25 hours on them. It took over 3 years to find a printer who could read the program my friend used and print them as clear as I wanted them to be. It was all worth it in the end.

Half of the trees are store bought Vick. They are mass produced cheap snow covered trees sold st Christmas. Pack of 6 for about $9. The others were grown as Autumn Joy Season I grow in my yard.
