Looking good Birthday Boy! [Image: birthday-cake-2.gif]

A while ago we had a Member with trouble on one of those turntables too. I can't remember which member but I beleive he opened it up to fix it. Hmmm...can't seem to find that Thread. Dodgy
Birthday girl lol. But thank you!

The problem with the turntable is that it's not resetting properly.

Oop's...Sorry Confused

That is the same problem that the member I referred to had. Does anyone remember who that member was or know what Thread it was in. For some reason I also remember doing a couple of videos on this. One showing the problem and one showing a fix.
The thread is here https://blueplastictracks.com/showthread.php?tid=3822
I have a website where I have been writing about and photographing many of the sets and pieces that I find interesting.

For that turntable. I gave up on trying fix it. I brought another one and tried play around with both it and never found fix for it. So have to manually turn it back once it turned. I haven't touched both of it since Dec or January.

Lumber yards are expensive and I didn't want to try and diagnose the issue myself, soooo I just replaced it with the quarry and some road. This is it, Layout 2.0. What do you all think? Better or worse than the first?

Its a shame about the Lumber Yard not working but I like what you have done to replace it.  [Image: baseball-boy-thumbs-up-smiley-emoticon.gif]
Layout 3.0!! I've been procrastinating on this one for a while. I entirely took everything apart and redid the whole layout from scratch.

The road going under the suspension bridge was inspired by the obscure Thomas Mega Set.

Trying to connect the sheds and the riser to the inner loop was a massive pain! And I'm still not sure I've got it to my liking.

And speaking of a massive pain - I couldn't figure out a decent way to connect the inner and outer loops with the pieces I have (I don't own an X-switch, sadly.) so I just didn't lol. I actually really like the way it looks - It feels a lot more dense and busy than my other layouts! (even though I left out pieces like Tunnels and Elsbridge etc)

Now it's about 5 AM, I'm gonna head to bed lol

This layout took roughly 4 hrs of planning, building, cleaning, etc lol
