This layout is pretty awesome for a 4x8. You guys really make it look bigger than it is!

Great to see it growing. I wonder if I´ll be able to do all the work by myself… Thanks for all the good ideas and tips.
Greetings from Sintra, Portugal!

Thanks guys for showing a bit more in this segment. Could you please mention what Walther’s background building you used for the cabinet company against the fascia, or is that in the May issue?

5

I’m loving the series hope you guys turn this project layout series into a ebook! Having both printed pages and the video together would be great.

6

I CANT WAIT TO SEE MORE GREAT JOB GUYS.

Great work, guys. This could be expanded on a ping-pong table that measures 5’ x 9’! (One that folds outward and has wheels on it enabling it for storage if room space is limited).
This would give you more yard storage and possibly more industries for the railroad to service.

David,

Great set of videos on the building of the layout.

Two things, one is suggestion and the other is a question:

  1. How about issuing a CD or DVD containing the these episodes containing all of the videos for people to buy?

  2. About how long does it take to develop and build a layout? I see that this episode was shot in last year.

Another great segment I just finished making all of the puffball trees for my mountain so I feel your pain, but it’s a good pain.
Keep up the great work.

Very, very tasty. Mr. Popp you’re quite an artist. Lookin’ real good. Thanks

This is great! I am loving the series. I am really learning a lot. By the way what happens to all of the project layouts when you are done? Do you sell them or what?

14

There is nothing quite like seeing things being done. Most people don’t realize how our brain really works, but we learn better when we use BOTH sides of our brain (Left and Right, artistic and logical). I really learn a lot watching what you guys do, in concert with the verbal descriptions. Great job guys !!

Hi David,

Enjoyed the section on rock painting, you tips will assist me in doing some of the rock croppings on my layout, which are both made from rubber and hydrocal.

Regards,
Steve

great work, will there be acomplete video /dvd of the virginian available soon.

17

Great work on a great layout! You guys are pros.

18

How much space would you leave between the scenery shell and the track edge to allow for adding rock castings?

19

Will you be airing Eric’s method of making puff ball trees?
