We couldn't find a small bakers rack for the kitchen.
Plenty of time on our hands..... What to do ? Needed to fit in a corner. Off to the garage. 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" angle iron 96 " tall Results in place. Shelf material and small details to be determined. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Ties are glued in.
Assembling the bents using the same shape as the track. I made these bents over 25 years ago and never used them...Until now. |

The last pic shows a big tressle upside down ? Wow ! intricate work. 25 years at it. Get busy. Yes. Building the trestle upside down as I'm using the curved roadbed as a jig so after building the roadbed I flipped it upside down and used some more jigs to properly space and position the bents. Printed a lot of jigs, braces, clamps, and hold downs with the 3d printer. The trestle was started in my other house before moving to Allentown 25 years ago. The Allentown house had a lot more room so the layout grew and the original trestle which was never completed was torn apart for re-deployment in its new position and shape. Two daughters and two Porsches means the only time for model railroading is in the winter. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
