Building a New Model Railroad Part 1: The Benchwork and base Wiring

[@MMRails]

Your production value is absolutely the best in the community. Great job. The benchwork is cool too, but you know how to make a top quality video. -Mark

[@DIYDigitalRailroad]

M&M Rails Thank you!

[@howardhansford4137]

What a great idea adding a switch and plugs

[@ThePwcj]

The benchwork looks good. Thank you and take care... Paul.

Interesting looking foward to see more....thanks for sharing....Jack

[@JohnPW22]

Can't wait for the next episode! Very informative video thanks.

[@davidmuse7004]

Like the "Mater Switch" idea Jimmy!! Been thinking about one for the layout. Thanks for sharing and congrats on the new start for the new layout. Muse

[@nesr8786]

yup as predicted looking good, and great idea using nano shields .take care till next time, Mac

[@MartyM22]

Great start to your new layout!

[@erict.8190]

Good morning jimmy ur new layout is coming along nicely have fun jimmy, and happy rail roading hehe

[@CM-ARM]

Hey nice bench. I'm really looking forward to seeing the next video since I'm getting ready to start my own railroad.

[@IMRROcom]

I use the same covers for my layout lights, Take the rubber horseshoe at and it makes a very satisfying click. Sounds very industrial breaker. Seems you have a good click from your now.

[@stevenrobinson1379]

I like the idea of a master switch!,Would be much easier! Great video!

[@jeffmorgan1229]

Great video, looking forward to future videos. Keep up the great work.

Today's coffee 100% Columbia from quick chek with Irish cream

[@TechBuild]

What about making an Arduino controlled setup which can measure the amount of current going through the tracks and activate a relay to disconnect the track power from the DCC++ base station in an event of overload or short circuit?

[@bobsinclair9886]

I like THIS thanks

[@bobsturgis4674]

Jimmy the foundation to your knew railroad is looking good.Question are you wearing safety glasses when drilling those holes?You don!t want a peice of the wood going in your eyes.Until the next video,Happy Model railroading.🚂

[@southern207hobbies]

I'm currently working on the solar power system for my layout I have done testing so far so good

[@nesr8786]

morning Jimmy im anticipating a good show as usual

[@DIYDigitalRailroad]

NESR Thank you!

[@TheOriginalBadger]

And that one small table is going to be the entirety of the new layout?

[@DIYDigitalRailroad]

I'm going go have to build a small extension to accommodate the entire track plan

[@Mercatoyd]

Jimmy.. your father did a nice job on that table.. how about showing us some closeups of the corners and what not showing his "doubled up staggered joint method" of building bench work. Congrats on the sub numbers.. goes to show the quality of your channel content.

[@DIYDigitalRailroad]

I actually have to construct some additional benchwork, So I will be doing some sort of benchwork build video.

[@nscaled1]

I like the master switch idea - but it is sticking out pretty far. If you aren't watching your leg is going to trip it in the middle of an OP session.

[@MikeThomasRailRoadOverhaul]

awesome

[@KeithHearnPlus]

I hope you don't find that that switch is just the right height for someone's leg to switch off your layout during an operating session.

[@attackeagle]

Looking good Jimmy. Enjoying seeing you build 2.0, since I’m still in limbo on 1.0, lol. I just finished another little project, thought you might enjoy seeing it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2qYlGdseMd7fbM

[@rvnmedic1968]

You assumed a lot that the viewer would be familiar with the electronics and also the benchwork. Not very helpful for me.

[@bobs369]

Lose the music very annoying
