Anything to help a genius! Just read the blog on how you cast those sides, a very tidy job.
Is your fruit dolls house products or have you invented an apple casting machine?

Re: Loading bank
Rik's been genetically modifying fruit trees so that they actually grow apples that small. A working 16mm scale cider press is next...
A lovely little scene, which reminds me of fruit and other produce being loaded into the guards van in Titfield Thunderbolt - and being reminded of that's never a bad thing!
Cheers,
Andrew.

1/12 scale dolls house fruit, but seems to look ok at 1/16. Not sure about a machine but I thought I might have a go making some with Fimo. The dolls house ones aren't cheap. I also need to make punnets of strawberries. That'll be fun

Be careful you donβt end up making Strawberry Jam and having the jam butty chaps wanting them tooβ¦.

Fimo is a great material for miniature fruit and veg. Here are some which Diane has made for my Emetts.....

Re: Loading bank
Lovely work again Peter. They are better than anything growing in my allotment! (Except for the 'lemona' courgettes which are bigger than the marrows!)
I have to say I rather like your fruit vans too!

Re: Loading bank
Hi Rik, the flowers are from 'The Works' some time ago when they were sold as enhancements for decorative cards etc... I think they are not current stock but might be available elsewhere?
Certainly they are listed on Chinese doll house suppliers listed on eBay.

Re: Loading bank
By pure chance I was browsing the North Pilton Works website, not looking for anything in particular when I came across these crates. https://www.northpiltonworks.com/index. ... duct_id=27
At a fiver for 6 they look to be remarkably good value, if anyone is looking for them again.
