If I'm honest, they're sat here next to me in the box they were put in after that photo, I have the painting gear out now as I'm numbering up the wagons so I might continue painting it if I have time. thanks for the prod in the un-mentionables!Mr. Bond of the DVLR:104704 wrote:How are you doing your signals??
However I much I'd love to use CAD and laser software, thats actually a Trimble Sketchup 3D model of the coach. As its all in the correct sizes and all that I could theoretically 3D print it, but I don't think it would work It's an extremely rough sketch however compared to my normal 3D modelling!Mr. Bond of the DVLR:104704 wrote: I presume with the CAD drawing you will be making a LASER cut carriage? If so what materials are you constructing with?
Whilst we're on the coach, it will use:
-Roundhouse Bogies (these have been knocking around in my Dad's stock for a while now)
-Plasticard for the frame
-Coffee stirrers for the planking and doors
-Cast items for the detailing
I'm hoping to start a dedicated thread once construction has commenced!
