Hi all,
I have the correct dimensions for GWR track panels and timber dimensions/spacing etc set up in Templot. However, I would like to make some sort of frame so I can simply lay it on my mat and place my pre-cut ply timbers in to hold the hole thing stable while I glue chairs and insert rails.
I know there is a way to do this but I cannot for the life of me figure it out.
So I am going to make it via FDM 3d printing, I have a rail length setup for GWR 44'6" 19 sleeper panels (which should be 178.86mm long lengths in 1:76)
The idea would be to make it so that there is a small recess that would hold a rail in place to allow for accurate placement and gluing of chairs and also some connection lugs on either side so that potentially multiple sections can be built at once (i.e 1m lengths of bullhead rail at one time)
Thanks in advance and happy modelling.
