@joshhall, take a screen shot. I’m not a member of that group so I sadly can’t see the vid. 🙁

One of the benefits of escorting your spouse to a craft store is that you discover things that you never knew existed.

Thanks for digging into this, @joshhall – looks like this functionality has been restored, much appreciated!

Wow. This build challenge is something I can definitely get into. It will be my first challenge entry – very exciting! Thanks @joshhall

@joshhall, and @rcgrier3406, I’ve attached a render showing the widest point of the Schnabel car, along with red/white bricks to visualize the exact size. Good news is that it’s a typical 8w base up to the platform with the control arms. So low boxes near the track won’t be a problem.

Then it’s 12w at the upper shoulders. The cargo platform…[Read more]

@joshhall, if the clearances are too tight for stuff Glenn or Michael are running on the R104 and R120 tracks, we can always try to incorporate it on the R40 double track loop where John has his winter village.

@greg, if you find it and it still works you should definitely bring it. We can find a good spot for it on one of the R40 single track loops.

@joshhall, the crossing gates look great! I had to zoom in on the photo to see the strings

does the LUG have rechargeable C batteries? they could come in handy for a battery-powered L-gage train that I want to run at the CSC show

@rcgrier3406, this reminds me that I have a mindstorms sensor controlled crossing gate … I need to double check…[Read more]

Thank you, @joshhall, for restoring the login boxes and the “Online Members” avatars!

Added my availability. @joshhall, if you’re adding the draw bridge, do you want me to send you a Studio file mockup of my Schnabel car extreme width/height points to check clearance with your bridge design? We got it to work at Home and Garden but I think I had to remove the shoulder pistons, which I can gladly do again to make it work.

fixed.

done. (thanks for citing the references).

Not yet/entirely. Earned cups will still be tracked under the existing event creation. The exceptions are:
1)Build challenge cups – An inv. mgr will need to go into user admin and click the buttons to add the build challenge cups (these will no longer expire, but do not compound).
2)First…[Read more]

@joshhall I tried to go and update the Blogged event, but it’s fallen out of the top 25. When I click on page 2 I get an error that the page doesn’t exist. 🤔

@joshhall, Is there a new process for cup reconciliation before a meeting (to replace the last- minute message that says “Hey Josh, please add +2 cups for blog recognition ((TBB 11/28, Carnegie Magazine))” ) ?

@joshhall and @pnbrenem Thanks for all your hard work on this!

@joshhall, sorry to hear you had to have your appendix removed. I hope for a speedy recovery.
If on the chance you’re still under the weather in the coming weeks and it’s too much trouble to move the sneeze guards and tables to CSC, I will happily play defender to protect our trains and layout at the CSC. I’m running my Schnabel and the “Consist…[Read more]

@rcgrier3406 I can definitely hold off on responding until after Saturday’s meeting. @joshhall please put Locomotion Weekend discussion on the agenda. Thank you.

Hey, @tfdesigns, @joshhall and the LUG got some press in the Winter 2023 edition of the Carnegie magazine for Warhol inspired Campbell’s Soup Can that’s currently on display at the Science Center!!!

fixed and added their cups.
