Back to the Beginning | Thunder Mesa Reimagined
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 08. 2024
- Join me as I take the Thunder Mesa layout back to its nearly original 3x6' footprint in this FINAL phase of demolition for the reimagined layout. Thunder Mesa town is carefully removed and all of the structures stored away, then it's time to begin the first phase of actual construction with the addition of new benchwork for a dramatic canyon section! Things are really moving forward in this Thunder Mesa 2025 update!
Thanks for watching, amigos!

I liked how you were considerate of your town folk and removed the privy last. 🙂
The first thing needed and last thing to go.😁
Keep using drywall screws. They're the most economical choice,and the course thread works the best for wood to wood and foam connection. Looking forward to the build.
You even make taking things apart fun. You saved alot of stuff. That crow will showup one day. Can't wait for the buildup video to start. I guess it did the canyon frame work began. See you next time.
GOD BLESS🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖
I use nothing but sheetrock screws for everything I build. I am excited to see this next evolution!
You are so John-Allen-Esque. Taking the original vision and creating more awesomeness! I always look forward to your passion for the art!
Hi Dave, I found your channel about a month ago and I've watched all the videos on your channel. I wanted to tell you as a carpenter that there is no problem with your woodwork and you shouldn't put yourself down about it because what you do is perfect for your needs. There is no need to spend more money or make things any more complicated than they need to be. I salute you sir.
Thank you!
I suggest referring to the downward risers as Sinkers. Seems reasonable.
Drywall screws are perfectly fine for these kind of projects.
Amazing to watch 👍👍
Dave, you use whatever woodscrews you like! I use drywall screws and it's great to simply unscrew a component when I need to. I have the relics of something I glued together. Breaking it up was basically terminal to the structure. I'm absolutely enjoying your mode of railway construction and the product is fantastic. Good 'ealth, John Warner, Australia
Boy Dave, just gotta say again, I think you would be amazed at what an oscillating saw would do for controlled demolition.
I think many of those scenes could be gently removed in their entirety.
It acts almost like a cast saw, not a jigsaw or circular saw.
Looking forward to the new build 👍🏼
Sure looks like your having fun!
Dave, I'm fairly sure you've seen my "Twin Peaks" layout. When I started building it, I considered that someday it might have to be moved. Other than some scenery, it's in sections that are Bolted together.
Now here's a Project 2025 that I think everyone should look forward to and not be horrified by ;)
Dry wall screws are great for holding frames together.
Too bad you can't get some pictures of the buildings on rollers. 😉 When I was a young model railroaded and really cheap by need. I used a string of white Christmas lights to light my buildings. When you get the Boot Hill gate and fence rebuilt, I bet that raven will come home. 😉
As a wargammer I've said it before and I'll say it a thousand times:
You railroad men have forgotten more about making terrain then we'll ever remember
Hi Dave. I'd suggest using an impact driver instead of an electric drill for driving in any kind of screw. They are smaller and lighter than the drill, use the same battery's, and require less physical effort. I only use drywall screws for my projects. Since we both live in AZ where it is so dry, the screws never rust.
Dave, what does drywall screws attach to... WOOD! Keep using your drywall screws
The second time in my life to see the Eighth Wonder Of The World! 😂
There is nothing wrong with using drywall screws on the layout, I'm using them on mine. I do pre-drill and countersink as I'm using plywood for my benchwork and I like a nice flush fitting screw
My entire 24 x 34 O3r layout is sheet rock screws. Work just fine and they were free. Dad had boxes of them in his shop when he passed. Thanks
I’ll definitely be following this as I’m hoping it gives me the motivation & kick in the butt needed to actually START my Disney diorama with various gauge Disney Trains.
I like how you’ve put thought into the construction making it easy for deconstruction too. I doubt I’ll achieve such forethought as a complete novice so here’s hoping these videos give me ideas.
Will these be going into any particular “playlist” so that I can follow the new construction process easily?
I see no problem with drywall screws. My whole bed frame is held together with drywall screws. In the end, a screw is a screw. Except maybe machine screws, which are just this side of being bolts anyway.
Good Luck and Have Fun !😊
Fun as usual Dave, thank you
Congratulations, Dave! Looking forward to following along with the process
I'm in the same phase right now! I have a double deck layout and the upper level has to disappear. I hope to upgrade the lower level. So breaking up is looking forward to the future ! That makes it fun.
However, due to old age....I hope......
The back side of water!!😂. Switzer Falls? Named for Dr Falls?🤣
A Jungle Cruise creative boat operator quote I believe.
FWIW, I'd call those risers "hangers" instead.
A battery powered oscillating saw would really help you with some of this removal. For the longest time I couldn’t figure out what to do with one but now it’s one of my favorite tools.
On my list
I look forward to each new video. Thanks for sharing!
I can't wait to see the reconstruction. Don't give into the hatters, my whole layout a 15 x 17 around the room is built with drywall screws and its solid, it won't come apart unless I take it apart.
I have no patience for hatters.
Haha, maybe they are droppers, nice work. Cheers Peter from downunder
Dave Get new bits to stop rounding those screws 😂😂😂😂😂😂😊😊😊keep your videos coming
I’m really looking forward to seeing this progress and I’m also excited to see what you get up to when you get distracted.
Drywall screws ftw, aka "duct tape screws."
It's really hard to watch the destruction of such a creative bit of work. But looking forward to watching what you have planned next .......................>
The great drought of 24'
Great start, can't wait to see the rest.
Dave, I like your style!
Always happy to see a new video.
Nicely done!
THANK YOU!
Man this sucks to watch, but I know it's in service of something bigger and better :3 Still sad to see the old layout go though ^-^
It's all building from here - no more destruction!
another great video, can't wait to see more of the building.... I would love to build a grave yard diorama but not sure how I should go along to make the stones. I know of a place I can buy some but they are costly as well... would you have any suggestions?
I printed my own.
OH, I can't watch the whole thing! It's like seeing behind the curtain to the pulleys and levers the Wizard of Oz controls. 😮
Risers/Droppers. It's all relative...
It is like watching a train wreck...so to speak...I want to turn away but just can't help myself.😟
What is wrong with using Dry Wall Screws?
Dave, Where have you bought your Bench Pads?
Mark, those are from Fiskers. I found them on Amazon and I like them better than the X-acto ones since they are tow sided.
Real modelers use drywall screws for everything :)
It's just more nit picking for anyone to concern themselves about what screws you used. They're not holding up any great structure.
