  • A baseboard gives a solid foundation on which to build your model railway. Join me in this video as I build my own N Gauge model railway baseboard out of timber & MDF.
    This video should show you how easy and simple it can be to get reasonably quick results to enable you to build your first small layout!

    Im not just having a dig at you but these youtube premiere things drive me nuts.
    Maybe not a popular opinion but i will watch anyway as i am subscribed.
    Its just another youtube ploy to try and get in with the cool kids

      Thanks for letting me know! I quite like doing them because it gives me a chance to chat in real time with my subs, and I also give you at least 24 hours notice of a premiere so that it gives you more chance to turn up. I understand how it can be frustrating - I too just want to watch the video - maybe I'll upload some without this feature

    At last .... a man who works like I do. " Rack of eye and screw of chops " as an old workmate of mine used to say. Why work to limits of a gnat's eyelash when it's going to be hidden but functional.
    I shall follow your progress mainly for curiosity, but I'm starting an N scale (small) layout after many years of doing other things. I've no doubt that I shall learn something.

      Haha! Yes, if it works then it's fine in my opinion. Work on my layout has been a little slow of late but hope to get some track laying done at some point! I recently made a custom N gauge wagon and the video is on my channel somewhere . . .

    Great work so far! I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with your layout.
    I'm also building a small layout - American N scale though.

      Thanks! I think i'm pretty much seeing what happens as I go along. What stage is yours at at the moment?

      @@ModelMinutes I'm at the baseboard making stage myself. I work for a furniture manufacturing company, so have been making my baseboard at work during my lunchbreak haha! Having said that, it's been over 30 deg C here lately, so I've been sitting outside under a tree and having my lunch instead. It's a bit of a shame that I can't post pictures of it here on UA-cam.

      Nick Vallender sounds nice, I’m sure your baseboard will be to a higher standard than mine! ☺️
