Which Evergreen Corrugated sheet

[Tony Davis]

Hi, I’m following David Wright’s instructions building the Airfix/Dapol Cottage. He has added an outbuilding and recommends the use of Evergreen Corrugated Sheet as roofing, but he doesn’t quote a size. Would a kind soul oblige, please?

[Jeff Smith]

Evergreen sheets come in a variety of sizes but are very uniform and plain.  Have a look at the Wills SSMP219 corrugated asbestos sheets.  Plenty of detail and correct for 4mm scale.

Does anyone do a double sided corrugated sheet as the will ones look good as cladding but are no good for fencing as the relief is only on one side

You may need to go down the metal route.

Ambis engineering do corrugated sheet in 4 and 7mm scales and is available made from copper or aluminium.  It's available from Hobby Holidays, sorry no link.

Standard corrugated sheets have a pitch of 3" between corrugations, so for 4mm scale look for something with a 1mm pitch.

Thanks Jeff, David Wright did mention Wills, but said that he felt it was too thick.

 I have used aluminium corrugated sheet that was supplied in an O scale laser cut building kit.  It is quite delicate, you have to be careful cutting it across the corrugations as it crushes easily.

Most of the Evergreen corrugated sheeting is modern box profile, I only found slaters sheets with a smooth curved profile.

 

If you want thin sheets detailed both sides, use the Wills clear corrugated sheet painted as its only vac formed - only drawback is its a bit small sheets.
