IIRC we have a couple of current or former materials engineers, and maybe a couple of chemical engineers too. If you are out there, I hope you'll know. I want to try soldering (or other) fine steel wire to un-weathered rail. To code 55 or even code 40, and, if possible, directly up tight...

Luke's videos are widely seen on YouTube. He can generally fund his own ideas, and particularly buy his own tools too, so projects like his are not unreachable for him, at least. Perhaps moreso for us, the masses. His latest one: ...is just five days old. Right here he's built what we...

The only (vague) rule--we can't enforce it anyway--is that if you post a link, you have to listen to at least a few bars of your own song. Or watch a minute or two of your own posted video or song. If only so you can comment on it, if anyone asks you about it, without a "well, I haven't...

I think the Woodland Scenic line of HO scale chain link fencing uses a wedding fabric called "tulle" (pronounced "tool") for the actual mesh. You can get it at any decent sized fabric store--Jo Ann's here in the US, etc. There are different mesh sizes, colors and shapes, and you can scan most...
