Some un-published left over shots dating back to 2011.

This program was never published as I considered it just too boring, so I've dumped it on Youtube as some of the footage is now 10 years old and could be con...

Saucer eyes. What you get when your PC won't read your HDD with all your completed video files on it. A re-boot revealed a major problem - thanks to PB Tech sending me a new one overnight courier, it was here first thing this morning and I managed to rescue all but one file - albeit taking all day.
There's always a plan B if this ever happens but luckily I didn't have to resort to it. I'll do a re-format to see if I can rescue the Drive, but no great loss if I can't.

Hi all. I've had a request to release all my original NZ productions on Youtube. Why not? They're now 20 years old and no-one buys DVDs any more, so here's Matamata to the Mount. First released on VHS in 2001 and re-released in 2009 with additional footage.

This program was initially made in the early 2000's and due to my poor editing skills, was an abysmal mess. So after getting a few more shots, I decided to r...

For what has seemed like an eternity, I've finally got back into creating my modular railway. For the first time, I've connected a corner and straight module together and run a short train between the two. The structure is a little bit wobbly, but this was expected and I have a solution for that.
Each straight module is 1800 x 600mm and weighs just over 9 kg with real stone scenery on it. Each corner module is just over 10 kg. I've built 8 straight modules and 4 corners. The total length is 28 feet end to end.
My daughter visited one day, took one look and said "What have you done to my room?!?!?"
