  1. Now in primer, the difficult bit begins..
  2. Once described as East Anglias prettiest railway bridge dating from 1846 and is in fact a listed building still very much in use today. I’ve been keen on a model of this for a few years so it’s great to now have this beautiful bridge in 4mm model form on our workbench today. There is already several hours of survey and design work gone into this and that’s before a few hours of laser time. A few more bits lasered today will finish it off and then it will be in primer this evening for viewing by the Bury St Edmunds MRC. The arch under was particularly tricky with its complex double curve. We didn’t have enough time to calculate the geometry for a precision laser cut part. Instead an oversize piece will be lasercut and then trimmed by hand. It’s been put the the MRC that the 75 year anniversary of the club should be to build Bury St Edmunds Station of which this bridge would be part. Much of the drawing and Cad has been completed. I think if the club don’t go for it a small but dedicated group of us will do it anyway.
  3. A 7mm modern engine shed starting to come to life. I think the shadows and light play really add to the atmosphere.
  4. Another 7mm kit converted to 4mm today. Our popular modern era bothy.
  5. If you wanted to try a lasercut kit, this is a great little signal box. https://www.intentio.shop/Lasercut?product_id=57&filter=2
  6. We’ve been working hard and we’ve managed to downsize our 7mm station shelter in to 4mm OO gauge without losing the details.
  7. Optional posters and notice board pack is available for our waiting room. To compliment the waiting room and our other waiting room kits is our GWR inspired wooden platform. The modular design allows for platforms of various lengths to be produced.
  8. Big warehouse available in all scales.
  9. A new kit added for 2023 is our version of a Country Station waiting room/Shelter. For the eagle eyed, this is based on Midsomer Norton. 7mm version available now and 4mm coming soon.
  10. Parcels are getting through eventually. Sorry for the delay as I’m looking forward to seeing the progress on your layout as well.
  11. Great to see this layout. It has great potential to be something special if all your plans are anything to go by,
  12. For the OO gauge modellers I’ve got a cassette system that is based around settrack.
  13. A couple of new 4mm kits just coming online. Will be available to order after the weekend. Come and see us at Scaleforum and get up and close with our kits this weekend.
  14. Kevin, Apart from the standard Northlights and warehouse kits on the Intentio website, I do have a few low relief kits based on Ipswich Docks and GWR/LNWR bonded warehouses. They are big and make impressive back drops. A few pictures of the sort of thing thats available;
  15. A 4mm water tower that we’ve been working on. Based on Thaxted, this GER type could have been on any small branch line.
  16. Thanks Steve. The basic outline of the tunnel is coming along. Plenty of detail to add. Will be looking at 3D printing the distinctive mouldings and centre decoration.
  17. For that money, you could have an Intentio kit made from wood, double skinned interior, and that will last 20 plus years. Undoubtably these kits will do well but for just a little more money, Intentio and there are other similar manufactures, will supply you a much better offering and better value for money too.
  18. That’s a great idea. I’ll have to borrow that and produce as an optional extra.
  19. That is one of my favourite kits but it takes so long to cut out. I think about 6/7 hours on the laser for the 7mm version. I’ve been persuaded to do another batch in 7mm and also a very limited number in 4mm. I’ll probably see how I can simplify the design so to speed up laser time. In the meantime, i shall look forward to the updates here.
  20. Some new products. Building on the KS Laser designs bespoke mimic panel range, we’ve added a cobalt lever frame kit and redesigned the control panels.
