Russ - I've been drawn into the world of 1:32 Gauge 1 and 1:22.3 Fn3 live steam.  The lack of variety in 1:32 freight rolling stock is pushing me back into scratch building.  And I retired and moved.

Mark, sheets and angles do indeed bend slightly due to the embossing of the rivets. Normally, however, they can be straightened relatively easily by hand.
