railwayrod Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Sorry I am unable to help you with the seats. In fact I am looking for some to grace the platform of Ramchester. I have been talking to Chris Ward about having some 3D printed but as I have been out of action for a while with a heart by pass op I have not been able to pursue this. I am looking forward to your forthcoming thread on the RMweb. Railwayrod Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
flexible_coupling Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Doing the metal 'frames' as a 3D print would be pretty easy work, then use plastic or hardwood strip for the planks. If someone could get a clear photo from close to side-on and an approximate size of one of the planks. 5 minute job to develop a file for submission to Shapeways etc... message me if I can be of assistance (as I'll need a few nice looking platform benches myself at some stage!).

LNWR lives on Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Doing the metal 'frames' as a 3D print would be pretty easy work, then use plastic or hardwood strip for the planks.

Could the same be applied to 4mm? guessing it would have to be plasticard for the planks. Rought idea of cost per set of 3 metal frames?

flexible_coupling Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Might be a bit too fine for 4mm. Surely there'd be etched brass versions for the more popular scale? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSB Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 The problem with 3D printing would be getting the scrollwork thin enough to look right. In theory in 7mm scale it should be possible to bend up the ironwork parts from brass strip - the main problem being getting them all the same! Thanks, TeamYakima, for posting the picture.

TEAMYAKIMA Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 TDMRC failed to track down the discontinued kit and so we designed our own set of parts ...... and produced our own station nameplates ..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
railwayrod Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 A Happy New Year to you all. I have been out of action for a while but now I am back.
