    Saturday was jammed we made the trip up and there is so much to take in especially the main building we’re scaletrains and scenic express camp out. The outer buildings are a little more and less crowded. They almost have a 5th building need at this point

    Wow, I could happily spend a couple of days looking around that place. I attended a model railway show local to me here in England this past weekend, it was good but as my main interest is in the US I find shows over here limited. Where those light up sign Miller engineering, I have not seen them in person and always wondered about adding one to my layout. And those rubber rock faces looked fantastic. I look forward to seeing what you picked up. All the best Anthony

    Thanks for the highlights of the show. I would like to attend once just to say I've been. However, I know the show is mostly geared towards HO and N scales and I model in O scale. Look forward to seeing what you picked up.

      hey there, they are about 8cm tall, which puts them around 20 scale feet tall to the top of the rounded frame. I think I saw smaller ones on the Temu site....

    I have to admit I bought a bunch of those street lights (with the square glass lamp enclosure) off eBay and they have great detail and are very solid...I think they're brass...I wouldn't be suprised. My thing is, TEMU itself. 100% Chinese. I try to limit my interactions with the country. Put it this way, I couldn't throw them very far... Good vid though.

    • @modelersworkbench8343

    Great idea to show some cheaper options especially for those starting out in the hobby. Shows you don’t need to spend a lot to get creative and kick off some simple ideas. Test and try new techniques before buying up in more expensive options. Thanks for sharing. New hobbyist from AUS

  • @LeveretteJamesClifford1955

    I bought some military miniatures from Temu and never again!!!! Detailed looking soldiers came back all about 1/32 instead of 1/35 with very little detail, got a 1/16 nude woman instead of the soldier I ordered, another set of two 1/16 soldiers which were supposed to be 1/35. I ordered more than that which turned out to be medium quality, an entire 1/35 hospital set that just don't have the detail shown, again. The biggest kicker was that the price for the 1/35 soldiers (which came as 1/35) seemed okay but dang it they did not charge me the 1/16 price. Here is how it happened: I saw the prices in my cart that were okay but when I finished the order and clicked "purchase," I saw that for the female and two male solders the price was like $98.00 and it happened so fast that I only saw the change for about two seconds. So, no, won't do that again. It just seemed to be a scam, certainly not the European/S.Korean/EbayChina/American?Australian experience. Speaking of Australia, a really good place to order, save money is BNA model world in Australia. You have the advantage of saving dollars over Australian dollars and shipping is 4-6 days. Plus they sell the brands that you already know plus a few you don't.

    I too ordered some scenery products. I added them to get free shipping, as what I got in return was fair. My timing was very good over the holidays as I got mine for a little over $3. I also got some farm animals realizing that they would have to be redone, but what do we ever plant on the layout that we don't tweak a bit?

    • @modelersworkbench8343
      @modelersworkbench8343 17 днів тому

      Absolutely! I just dipped some of those round bushes in Matte Medium and then put some flock leaves on them,,,, look better now and will definitely work for background forest/ growth. I am going to try and paint/weather those street lamps to see if I can get them to look a bit better. The free shipping is nice, I agree!
