Re: Newbie needs help! Modeling a platform in N Gauge

Hi Joe

To customise our platforms on our n gauge layout we used balsa wood cut to shape and then used sand paper to slope the ends.

Took bits from a metcalf kit (top and sides) and glued onto the balsa as required.

In hindsight may have created a balsa "box" rather than using a solid piece but it seemed to work OK.
