BricksTer - Case Prototype Demo
The current PCB really isn't designed to be put in a case, but I just got a prototype printed this week, and I really want to show the world what BricksTer can be. And so I hacked together the first in-case prototype and this little video. Let me know your thoughts: what do you like? what do you dislike? and subscribe for future updates! github.com/BTbricks/
Special thanks go to Doc_brown of Eurobricks for the initial case design.

    The flex track also means you make more shallow turns, which allows bigger and longer locomotives that are less agile to use the track, so you may not need to compromise a design too much, specificall for steam locs.

    Clever! I might one day end up having trains to run on such tracks. That foil tape is brilliant! How long does it last? Does it wear off or is friction with the wheels actually insignificant? If you switch back to remote-control trains, how do they run on track electrified like that?

  • @Kelkschiz
    @Kelkschiz Před 9 lety

    Looks very exciting. I like the approach you took with the casing. Will this remain a DIY project or do you envisage selling complete modules at some point? Any idea how your receiver compares to the SBrick (www.sbrick.com/) that is scheduled to ship near the end of the year?

  • @BigBBricks
    @BigBBricks Před 10 lety

    This is really great. Were you able to get consecutive pieces of the flex track to work with each other or do you have to have the straight elements to keep tension on it for conductivity? I'd really like to see where you have taken this. Also, how did you wrap the foil so well to the track?

    • @mitthrassaffis
      @mitthrassaffis Před 10 lety

      Consecutive flex pieces work too. I've found electrification of the track using foil tape to be too time consuming though, so I personally won't be using this method in the future. Thankfully, MeModels' KickStarter was successful, so we'll have some decent options for metal track in the future. =)

    • @mitthrassaffis
      @mitthrassaffis Před 10 lety

      How did I wrap it so well? Patience. ;)

    • @BigBBricks
      @BigBBricks Před 10 lety

      Nick Iaconis Any idea how long they've been sold out of the rails on their site and if they'll stock more? Those 9V to 4.5V connectors are very interesting. Thanks for responding.

    • @BigBBricks
      @BigBBricks Před 10 lety

      BTW - Did you have to separate the two parts of the flex track in order to do this? I'm assuming so but just wanted to know for certain. Thanks.

    • @mitthrassaffis
      @mitthrassaffis Před 10 lety

      Big B Bricks They've been sold out for quite some time. That was an limited beta production run. AFAIK they are aiming to fulfill KickStarter rewards sometime next month, and should be back in stock (but with the real deal instead of the beta) shortly thereafter. I did not have to separate the two halves of the flex track to add the copper tape. I fed the tape between the rails first, then folded it over to the outside/inside.
