  • Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
  • Just because the layout's torn apart doesn't mean I can't build some structures for it! Join me for this little project, building a passenger shelter/flag stop for the Big Thunder area on my On30 Thunder Mesa Mining Company layout. This tiny shelter is just 12 scale feet long and is based on a similar structure from the popular 1960s TV show "Petticoat Junction!"
    Thanks for watching, amigos!

    Love how you layer thin laser stock to simulate real construction details, while also maximizing strength and simplifying construction.

    Dear Dave, beautiful little flag stop. Especially love the way you did the uprights and their roof supports. Makes a lot of sense to indeed laminate it. First of all for the strength, secondly for the visual effect it creates with the roof supports being placed in the middle of the posts. Awesome little project. Apart from the larger ones like last week, those small ones are indeed what makes ‘our’ layouts shine. Cheerio

    2:18 thanks for including that Illustrator shot! As a 3D modeler, I basically do what you do but on a computer, so old western town/railroad shots like those are kinda hard to find, but perfect when you do.

    Have you considered selling your laser cutter files for these models?
