3D Printed Warwell... R&R 45t Crane, ICI Hopper, Biomass & others

Back on the drawing board today,

After a bit of a rethink, I will be releasing the FFA/FGA's as the Bachmann model is still a long way from completion.

I shall try and post a image of the test print tomorrow. Please note the headstock's on the FGA's are not final and need further detailing.

Nice - you could always do them as a FDA pair for sleeper carrying.

Not quite an RHTT flat/barrier wagon:

Definitely too many rivets!

I would have said come along and see the prototype at the Warrington show this weekend, but some twit has left it in the Midlands, the show is definitely worth a visit though.

Wild Boar Fell

 

P.s. More info to follow at sensible hours

I appreciate that with the hattons announcement that these will not be at the top of your list, but is anything happening with them?

Hi, whilst we have a large number of parts in stock for these, we don't have the parts to supply complete kits. The Hatton's announcement has meant we have shelved this project unfortunately. We are looking at alternative projects, either to be run by ourselves or Wild Boar Commissions Ltd, our new sister company, but we are not at a point to make any announcements just yet.

Hello Ian,

Unfortunately I had to stop the BEP project, the test prints warped along the coach length and I have not been able to find a suitable cure for this.

Regards,

Wild Boar Fell

Such a item would be better as overlays than 3D printed/resin cast I'd think.

Plastic-card overlays are being considered as a possible solution to this, using my cameo plotter. There may be progress on this as time allows.

Hopefully I can also use it to make a few bits for my new layout too.

I meant etched, in the same way MJT(Now Dart Castings)/Comet are.

Hello Everyone,

Today I have started work on a new wagon project,

The chassis should allow me to model two different wagons, and the body of one should help me design another similar wagon with a different chassis. Here's some photos of the chassis, but can anyone tell me which wagons I am drawing? Answers on the back of a postcard....

On the other wagons front, now that I have some funds available I will order the following (if not some others too)

Ramp Wagons Diorama (Finally!) 

Gloucester MK2's with buffers for PXA Sheerness.

PXA Sheerness wagon body/ chassis later 3001-7 version box.

GPS 25 wagon bogies.

 

Regards,

Wild Boar Fell

 

 

Hi Wild Boar Fell is there any chance of still producing this chassis? I can't find it for sale on your website still chap?

 

Cheers.

Quick show and tell time again.

 

WBF sent me a sample ffa/fga inner test print a while ago as a freebie with some other items I ordered from him. This has now been turned into an FJA with the aid of some s-kits details, bent paperclips, Hornby bogies, and Kadee couplings. Very happy with it I am too, cheers WBF.

Hi Matthew,

 

I was about to order another of your 3 spindle Parrot wagons, but now see that I.Materialise  show this now as not for sale.

 

Is there any chance this is an error, I would really like to order more, and I know of a couple of others people who would like to do the same.

 

Railtec do a sheet of transfers for these wagons to help with the finishing of them.

Hello Meld,

My apologies for not getting back to you sooner, I've just had a luck and unfortunately it is the case that I.materialise won't make the 3 spindle variant. I believe they had a few issues producing them on the last batch.

 

Kind Regards, 

Wild Boar Fell
