Well... I think "resourceful" might be too weak a word to describe that!
LOL! Reminds me of one of those "There, I fixed it" videos or memes. Lee must be one of those Duct Tape/WD-40 guys! A real men!
Those of us who grew up during the dark ages of N scale are keen to point out: We've done so much with so little for so long that we can now pretty much do anything with nothing. I confess, I've been using scrap rail for lighting projects for years, but mostly for structures. With all the layouts I build and tear down, it's sort of a renewable resource...Lee
A nice, quiet weekend at home. Excited to tackle the 29" long Aliso Street bridge extension project for my "Downtown LA" yards. The bridge is too long to fit on my workbench, assembly on a table. Styrene, basswood, and 1/16" MDF laser cut railings. So far so good, concerned with warpage...Tbc...Otto K
Working on my E7 for the Gopher/Badger. I decided I didn't want to deal with the cookie-cutters on the LL mechanism, so I'm using a Kato unit.
My parting shot for the weekend:
Otto, if you have enough clearance under the bridge could you insert some 1/4 inch square aluminum the length of the bridge. Might help against warping.Just a thought.Rod.
