Model wooden planks easy with simple tool + weathering

[@Patapeta76]

Amazing videos, technics, as always. You make it look so easy to do but when I try.....OMG! Thanks for the great video!

[@hystericalpunk8771]

I love this Channel, I can find a video that I need and don’t have to sit through meaningless information, and unlike most channels I can understand everything clearly

[@LarJgrip]

I’ve just watched a handful of your videos and my comment is, that you are a fine example of what happens when you pay attention to detail…nicely done.

[@marklinofsweden]

LarJgrip Thank you! 👍

[@jimarmour9035]

Great video and helpful for a lumber yard I am going to build.

[@Zavijava1]

Thanks Martin! great tip and clever tool👍🏼

[@wishborn2008]

A very good information video for buid a balsawood tool, thanks. 🙋‍♂

[@fraserdavidson2366]

I absolutely love your videos. I am about to embark on a n gauge model railway. This is the first time I have done something like this. I am sure I will refer back to your videos for ideas, hints and tips. Your work is amazing with out of this world detail. Thank you.

[@w.rustylane5650]

Very nice. Great tutorial. I have plenty of thin balsa wood and need some lumber strips. Thanks for posting.

[@markgriffith3076]

I give your videos a thumbs up before even watching them.....absolutely love your helpful tips and passion my friend 😊👍🙏

[@HeavyTone66]

Always so inventive and simple tools. Thankyou for sharing your passion with us

[@marklinofsweden]

Thank you Tony! 👍😊

[@glennmckay5119]

Quite brilliant!

[@monaf.rosst.pinyan472]

Nice video. Much appreciated. Wondering if the wood cutting might also be accomplished with a kitchen tool known as a "mandolin cutter?."

[@jagc1969]

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot!

[@trashtrainpunk1542]

I tried a similar wash with several packs of matches. Works really good. I did a darker brownwash for construction wood for my Interlocking tower. I was surprised how easy the wash application is. I´ll built a wood-cutter and will try it on the fine plywood of the Mandarinen-boxes (No idea what "Mandarine" is in english, its this orange citrus-fruit You have from november to january sold in little boxes).

[@w.rustylane5650]

I love the tool you made for cutting planks. Sure makes it easier to do a bunch at a time. Thank you for posting this. I'm gonna give it a try if I can find some plywood laying around. :-) Rusty in eastern Tennessee (Witherington Place Railroad)

[@nowvalleydiorama885]

That's sooo bloody creative, thanks for sharing with us. I also love the idea of aged and new stacks of timber.👌

[@ModelingSteelinHO]

Thank you for the tool idea. I'd been looking for just such a tool to spilt wooden coffee stir sticks in half.

[@Jenalgo]

Erm... that would be something we call... a knife.

[@CrankyPantss]

Great cutting tool. Thanks for sharing it with us.

[@MikeThomasRailRoadOverhaul]

Fantastic tool

[@bobtudbury8505]

Very nice ....:) kind regards , Dieter

[@ludovicjehel3705]

Wonderfull 👍

[@larmar]

Very good!

[@Finnertoncentralmodelrailway]

I love watching your videos i will be using alot of your ideas on my layout.

[@marklinofsweden]

+Brian Thank you Brian! Good to hear you like the videos! 👍😊

[@tomrock-spock5331]

Exactly what i need! Great Idea.

[@JohnHill-qo3hb]

Your latest video is very good, love your simple solutions to buying off the shelf. Still waiting on that lighting video, Martin.

[@marklinofsweden]

+John Hill Hi John! The lighting video is in production now. Preliminary release date is set to November 10, but I'll try to get it on-line earlier than that. Thank you for your patience! 👍👍👍

[@levesquetab]

Merci de France

[@nwgwc]

Love your tutorial videos...some really great ideas and methods! Always looking to build on the 'cheap'...like using Pringle cans for silos as well as some metal coffee cans. I have a lot of ideas and hope to share as I get to them to see if they really will work. Thanks again...keep'em coming!

[@hovermotion]

Very good home made tool...great vid...

[@marklinofsweden]

+Hovermotion Thank you! 👍😊

[@pablomoyanavarro1950]

Martin, great video, loved the tool idea, thank you!!!

[@marklinofsweden]

+Pablo Moya Navarro Thank you Pablo! Hope you have good use of the video. 👍

[@edcalvert2265]

Very nice tool! great video as always! Thanks for the video.

[@WoundedBear2k]

You might be better served by making your wood dye with isopropyl alcohol instead of water. Less swelling and warping of the wood with the alcohol. Your tool for making the wood strips is quite clever.

[@zacboring]

Amazing work

[@John-vw7ui]

Great video and idea. Thanks for sharing.

[@marklinofsweden]

+John Thank you John for the positive feedback! 👍

[@renard801]

I enjoy all your very clever videos. Please can you say how you make the little people in different poses, like the man with the planks? They are so realistic.

[@paulbislin8471]

Cool idea!

[@repeters1]

Great little tool. Only question I have is what size are the pieces you cut off? If you have a diagram with all the measurements, I would love to get / see it. Also, where did you get the razor blades from? Thanks, Pete.

[@xflow79]

Hi! As always a great, informative video! thanks!

[@eternalelo]

very nice video!!

[@marklinofsweden]

+Didier Goossens Thank you Didier! 👍

[@SiebiLikesTrains]

Oh my Gosh you are my Daniel Düsentrieb.... you know him? Thats a fine Idea. Thx for this Video... 👍👍

[@SiebiLikesTrains]

And i hope you wach my Videos at Siebi likes Trains.... Im a Beginner.. 😊😊😉😉

[@marklinofsweden]

+Siebi Likes Trains Daniel Düsentrieb? 😄 I had you Google that name.. In Schweden he is called "Uppfinnar Jocke". Definately one of my Disney favorites! Thank you for that comment!! 👍😊 But no.. Not so many of the methods and things I present is my own inventions, so I would more compare myself with the "Grimm brothers".

[@uwerumohr1330]

Hello, very interesting Homepage. I Like it very much. No my Problem I want to build your Tool tu cut Planks. The Problem i think the Razorblades in Germany not very thick. So the Problem is the Blade is always bending. So I must look for another kind if Blade. I Think the Blades from the Cutterknife are thicker.

[@gsilcoful]

Thank you.

[@milwmodeler3752]

I wonder if a vegetable mandolin cutter would work as well. I have an adjustable version that I might have to send some balsa through.

[@joshjohnston7388]

MILWmodeler how'd it go?

[@baldypalmsrailroad]

Great video, good tip in making planks. Another fine job. Skol! Ron//

[@marklinofsweden]

+Ron Karlsson Thank you Ron! 👍😊

[@Angeltoroworld]

yesssss, you are a genious

[@randybourque3327]

Awesome video thank you for this. Can I ask you I know you live in Europe and I am in Canada but where do you buy your or obtain your figures from because you have all kinds of figures and they look pretty good so if you could help me out with this I would really appreciate a link to any websites that I can purchase a variety of figures as I need them. Blessings Pastor Randy Bourque

[@randybourque3327]

One other thing do you know a website that has a calculator for dimensioning lumber. I work in 1:32 to 1:24 scale for different projects and would like to be able to build a cutter for the different scales Blessings Pastor Randy Bourque

[@Tulle1234]

Grymt du ger mig mycket inspiration till börja bygga en liten bana jag undrar lite över fine turf ska använda woodland scenics cement för att det ska fästa bra ?

[@marklinofsweden]

+Tulle1234 Woodland scenics cement funkar bra, men kostar dubbelt så mycket som en tub trälim på Hornbach, Byggmax eller Bauhaus.. Det är i övrigt i princip samma produkt (PVA-B lim).

[@paulsmith396]

Great video,thanks

[@ΓΕΩΡΓΙΟΣΚΑΛΑΝΤΖΑΚΗΣ]

Super

[@InterCity134]

Cool tips. You went too fast over the cutout drawing of the crosses - had to rewind and pause to see what you were cutting out. Also no clear use of the 2nd 0.8mm tool. What was it used for?

[@marklinofsweden]

+Minok1217 Hi Minok! Thank you for great feedback to this video. Agree.. Too fast there. Cannot be changed or undone now, but I will be on the lookout for this in future videos. The 1.0mm cuts beams. The 0.8mm cuts planks. Ideally would be even thinner planks, like 0.4 or 0.6mm, but the balsa is too soft and cannot be cut so thin.. Then you need to cut harder type wood, but harder wood cannot be cut with this type of tool, so then you're back on slow manual work. 😜

[@markhall4585]

[@foscoe2496]

Where did you get the wood to make you at

[@koertduus6317]

Fantaske.

[@JoelHudson]

Planks a lot for thanks... Wait... Reverse that ;-)

[@marklinofsweden]

👍😄😄😄

[@idefix9440]

mazaing again

[@joshuaethan]

Hi can you tell me the product name of the razor blades I can't seem to find them on the internet... Thanks

[@michaelehre1901]

Aaah, sehr cool 👍🏼 Deshalb fand ich das nicht 😅

[@Thoroughly_Wet]

Didn't know razors broke that easily

[@mortendegaard2724]

Hei. Jeg sitter og ser på denne videon du lager 2 verktøy. Lurer på om du kan sende meg målene på disse verktøyene.

[@ralphviola1508]

I am surprised that with all the water used the balsa did not dry and warp.

[@felixholmgren2797]

Can you pls do a layaout video

[@vongraffen2011]

Wellington donne.. .. as usual

[@vongraffen2011]

Well done, i mean :)

[@flywithstda8560]

is there a layout overview ?

[@marklinofsweden]

Fly with STDA Hi! Yes, several overveiw videos available on the channel. 👍😊

[@zvidde1]

köper gärna vertyget eller plankor....

[@marklinofsweden]

+zvidde1 😄 Så kan det vara ibland.. Jag tycker dock det oftast är roligare med grejer man gjort själv. Verktyget finns i lite mer komplicerat utförande att köpa, då i form med ett litet sågbord där skäret löper mot kanten. Plankor finns färdiga att köpa från tex North Eastern Scale Lumber.

[@Gbhmagic]

Lucky for me the hobby store sells large tooth picks for 2$.

[@ramiroflores7632]

Why you have a different voice on your videos

[@marklinofsweden]

I use two different microphones with the sound processing set up differently for those. Then I have a friend who´s adding German and/or Spanish voice to som eof the videos.

[@thelowmein9143]

If I tried this I would definetly slice my finger off
