Level crossing gates, attempting to make gates
I've got to the point in this little project where I need to make some gates. We are talking great big LNER gates here, with enormous concrete posts and guy rods.
Some drawings were published on here a few years back so I drew these up in TurboCAD and chopped then out on the laser-cutter. Two thicknesses of .7mm plastic seemed to give the right thickness. I nipped in to John Lewis at lunchtime and purchased some material to try and make the mesh. I've sandwiched this between the two pieces of plastic and then smeared some filler into the gap.
So, what do you think?
The top is the version from the Wills kit, bottom is my attempt so far.
thanks
David
