Casey Jones Television Series - Cannonball Express Train Model Part 2
zhlédnutí 8KPřed 2 lety
Here is part 2 of my recreation in HO scale of the train from the 1957 television series called Casey Jones. The locomotive is a heavily modified Tyco Mantua model. It has Digital Command Control fitted with sound. The two passenger coaches are slightly modified brass imports. The flat car is a modified one that I had on hand. The Caboose is a kit which I built and weathered. I captured these s...
Lost in Space - Jupiter 2 and Space Pod - My Model's SPFX
zhlédnutí 809Před 2 lety
I modified my Moebius models 18 inch diameter Jupiter 2 kit by adding mechanical fusion core lighting and scanner spinners, as well as working landing legs. The space Pod was modified as well with fusion core lighting and working scanner. For both models I also added custom figures. All scenes in this video were done using my iPhone on a small set in my garage.

I scratchbuilt the Fuel Barge and 1 foot Jupiter 2 and using rods and wires attempt to simulate how the Special Effects artists on Lost in Space did it with their miniatures using same techniques.

Here is a video I made of my model of the Jupiter 2. I added my own spinning fusion lights and scanner which can be speed adjusted. I also made the landing legs operational using servo motors.

    Not a show I'm that familiar with. Unlike mid 60's shows or later this one was before my time and it was never in syndication like other shows such as Gilligan's island, McHales Navy, Hogan's Heroes, etc..

    I would love to live in Mayberry, but even more in Petticoat Junction at the Shady Rest. No roads, no TV, no phone. And if I need anything, take the Cannonball to Sam Drucker's. If Sam ain't got it, or cain't get it, I don't need it.

    I was surprised to learn that there is a part of the smoke box at the front end of the boiler, that is called a "petticoat". It is a venturi that directs exhaust steam from the cylinders to the smokestack. This venturi creates the draft that stokes the fire in the firebox.

    That saucer could never have contained the pod, the chariot, the jet pack,the hydroponic growing system etc,etc. it was hardly large enough for the people. And they were sent into the unknown with no armament for the ship just evasive action. Irwin Allan did voyage to the bottom of the sea. The Seaview at least looked large enough for the flying sub.

    Awesome job man. I love these LIS ships. I was pissed at the recent remake movie when they had what was a reasonable facsimile of the OG ship break apart to reveal the odd shaped splotch that was the new ship, awful. Not a great movie but could have at least left the ship intact, certainly would have increased my enjoyment (or tolerance) of it.

    It's truly uncanny how much it resembles the actual locomotive! Astonishing! By the way, could you per chance know what type of Mashima motor you used? I'm thinking about trying this project out for myself, and I'm not very good at electrical identification. 😅 Truly great work!

    • @tjpreds1575
      @tjpreds1575 Před 7 měsíci

      I can’t remember now as did this modification some years back and dismantling the loco to measure it risks damage now. If you have the Tyco model just measure the cavity directly in front of the engineer’s cabin where the motor would be fitted and go from there. Good luck.
