Nice T, you say it started as a G scale project? Do you have G scale outside or inside?
I like how the railings came out, is it the picture making this side (red arrow) look like they are spaced closer together than the other railings? Or did you make that side first and decided different spacing for the other 2?
This is for an inside G scale table. A friend, Rick who is a travelling buddy for train shows. The spacing is not exact but have 12 to 13 posts on a side. These are round tooth picks that I used the man to adjust the height. It's rough all right but it still has charm. I am playing with the door and the stairs are giving me a rise in frustration.
I figured that is why you added to mine as I had your picture in the post.
I speed read, you speed edit.
A track map would look good.
You could maybe use a printer to make one and just glue it on?
Or a piece of cardstock and a black pen or marker, then just glue it on?
Needs a light inside to? Outside lights would look good too.
Maybe a G scale dog to keep the switchman company.:thumbsup:
You will know if I get carried away if I use a siding. They sell clapboard sheets. But the lights, Oh yeah lots of lights so far I am planning on interior(maybe red? for night) and outdoor under the railing overhang. The wall clock was going to be a circle but I may go with one that has the pendulum.
Time for an update. The next step is figure out how to place the stairs. Using popsicle sticks I constructed the stairs first and figured three flights would be needed.
There is paint. a chamois acrylic. The stair risers are popsicle sticks. Steps are coffee stirrers. I cut the risers with a scroll saw. I made extras and used the best. I just finished the railings.
