I just released a video 10 days before this video about a narrow-gauge train in a display case that is powered by a crank generator. This video sole purpose is to explain and show the schematic of the project and how it works. #microtrainlayout #narrowgauge #trains

    They make flashlights like that. I have one,. you wind it up for 30sec. And it's good for some time. 5$ 20yrs old.. Still works. I believe they make radios like that too. No batteries.. Want to get one. Ps. Like your train man,.. pretty cool. Looks like you had a lot of fun making it,..and do after. Thanks for showing. A veteran 1Cav. Age 67.

      Appreciate that! Yes they all take lots of time to plan and experiment. I would say for me personally I spend 75% of the time thinking, planing and experiments prior to building. Once I start building it go fairly quick. Then if I hit a road block in the building there is more thinking and solving. I love the whole process. Thanks for watching!

    Very impressive,but I can’t figure out how your circuit works? Did you use a latching relay? Is the cap and resistor connected to the relay coil there to keep it held on( if so how does it get time to charge?) There does not appear to be a fly back diode across the relay coil? Tia

    Peter, You make it so difficult to choose! Your integration of electronics, woodworking and model trains is spectacular. The Epoxy River is very impressive, but so is the coffee table. I like them both, but give extra points to Epoxy River for artistic effect. The Crank Generator Display gets an award in the novel concept category. Thanks for showing these projects.

    • @PeterWaldraff
      @PeterWaldraff 2 місяці тому

  • @StevesTrains
    @StevesTrains 2 місяці тому

    Boy, hard to pick one of those. I think I would have to go with the Epoxy River. It isn't my favorite layout per se, but I love the completed piece as a whole. The Close Encounter table is awesome, but I really hadn't seen something like the Epoxy River before in terms of a small fold-down layout like that which doubled as an art piece. I've of course seen bigger fold-down layouts in the murphy bed style, but that small one that looks amazing folded up is really cool.

    • @PeterWaldraff
      @PeterWaldraff 2 місяці тому

      Epoxy River is my wife’s favorite also. Dont know if you read the quote at the start of that one, but she never knew it was a train layout, and thought it was a cool epoxy art piece. That is how I presented it to her, she said “that would be cool”. Then my daughter home from college mentioned the train inside and my wife was like “what!?!?”. I guess she does not pay attention to my builds🤷‍♂️🤣. Anyway thanks for your input, appreciated!
