Scratchbuilding - Door and Window Source

Thu, 2017-06-22 11:30 — sanchomurphy

Hi everyone,

I am looking for sources of HO windows and doors for scratchbuilding. Primarily double hung and fixed windows, along with industrial doors. Grandt Line primarily sells more ornate designs than I need. Any recommendations would be great, or if you have an article recommendation on how to create them by yourself, that would be helpful as well.

Limon Layout Update.

It's been a while since I've posted an update and just realized it's been over a year now since starting this project.

I want to thank everyone for the tips and suggestions so far, keep them coming.

So for today I'll post some overview pics and hopefully tomorrow a few closer up to the structures.

Mid - June Update

A few months ago (before getting heavily involved in the Union Station project), I decided to move the oil loading platform from its original position in the middle of Elizabeth City (Tulsa) to a more open (and larger)  area on the opposite end of the upper level of the peninsula.  The picture above shows the new location.

Making a landing from scratch

Sun, 2017-06-18 11:36 — Martin t

Hi! 

I made a landing as a first attempt to get started with wooden scratch building. Not much to post maybe, but I was kind of happy with the result, so here goes anyway! :)

I made a video tutorial showing the construction of the landing:

Heat setting Walthers Goo

Thu, 2017-06-08 18:35 — BR GP30 2300

Hi All,

 

A question I have ........on a brand new pkg of Walthers Goo it states Temp. range -40 to 250* Heat cured up to 400* .

 

Is this similar to Pliobond in which it can be heat set?

Show your grain elevators...

Thu, 2017-06-08 13:00 — sanchomurphy

Hi everyone,

I plan on modeling a grain elevator in Kandiyohi, MN in HO and I was looking for some photographic inspiration and tips. Show me your elevators!

Please post the following:

  • Scale
  • Prototype or Freelance?
  • Kitbash or Scratchbuilt?
  • Components and manufacturers used?
  • Any additional construction techniques or recommendations?

I am particularly interested in photos and detail parts used. "Legs, distributors, conveyors, dryers, etc..."
