Feldbahnmodule with ship

@ Russ
Then I would have to do 3D turning with the lathe - and I can't (yet) do that.

The bricked edge of the turntable/sliding platform was modified a little.


The side parts of the walls were milled from a 10.0mm MDF board.
First, the joints in the upper row of stones were drilled vertically into the slab with a 0.5 mm drill (green). Then the side stone joints were milled 0.5mm deep with a 0.5mm cutter (blue). Finally I machined the outer contour with a 2.0mm milling cutter (red). The milling cutters ran on the respective lines.

Impressive work again and again!

Thank you, Bernhard

It went a little further - currently I have the following solution:

A loose rehearsal of the already milled parts gives this picture:

That's nothing less than inspirational. -- Russ

Hi Frithjof.
AS always very cool it does not need to be painted just seeing the bits is enough.
I was having trouble seeing your photos but it has been fixed very clear.
cheers

[Ray Dunakin]

Very cool!

@Kim How did you manage to see the photos again?


In the last few days the locomotive shelter went a little further.

The inner and outer parts of the wall were milled out of HDF.

After the 0.5mm cutter had milled the 0.5mm deep grooves, I sanded the upstanding wood fibers with a sandpaper file and swept the grooves free with an old toothbrush.


Dreh-Schiebebuehne_47 (fspg2)



Because of the HDF board is 5.2mm thick, I had to reduce the material thickness a little for the interlocking. This was done on the Proxxon circular saw.


Dreh-Schiebebuehne_52 (fspg2)



Now the remaining "teeth" have the same material thickness as the 1/2 stones and match the rest of the milling pattern.

I still have to expose the horizontal grooves, as shown here:

That is depressingly excellent. -- Russ

Thanks, Russ 


I've drawn a little and now ended up here:

I will do without diagonal bracing. The respective double rafters are screwed with a continuous threaded rod and external nuts and should give the small shelter with the corrugated iron roof enough stability ... ... and if the next storm does cause damage after all, it could result in a wonderful scene where tradespeople start repairs.

Yesterday there was an order for the sawmill to saw the wooden beams. Hazelnut "trunks" were used that had been waiting for a sensible use in a drawer for a good 10 years.


Dreh-Schiebebuehne_54 (fspg2)



First straight sections were sawn oversized on four sides ...

and brought to the final dimensions of 5.8mm x 5.8mm in a further sawing process.

Now there are enough bars waiting for the Kerfmaker.

I like the authentic production of the beams.

I agree with Bernhard. Very few modelers actually mill their own wood. But that is typical of Frithjof and one reason his modeling is so perfect. -- Russ

[WP Rayner]

I'm curious about the Hazelnut wood. The heartwood is very pronounced. Is it harder or softer than the sapwood and being a different colour, do you know how it will react to future staining and weathering?

[Ray Dunakin]

That wall is amazing!

[Barney]

Very neat workmanship - but Im lost in this world computerised stuff - but saying that Im struggling some times with a sheet of Plastic Card and a pack of Evergreen !!
but very nice stuff just keep it coming

Thanks to all!

@Paul

I'm curious about the Hazelnut wood. The heartwood is very pronounced. Is it harder or softer than the sapwood and being a different colour,

Hazelnut is moderately hard, easy to split and extremely elastic and can be turned very well.
The darker heartwood feels significantly softer than the outer sapwood.

do you know how it will react to future staining and weathering?

I can't comment on that yet, it's the first time I've used hazelnut.



After I got a few helpful ideas at Buntbahnforum for a more stable construction of the wooden beams, I redesigned a little further.

The individual "bars" were cut to size on my small circular saw, respectively the corresponding mitres were cut.

A teaching helped adjust the individual pieces of wood.
