Corrugated Roofing Tools .. all scales

[Carlo]

Ed, or anyone...
What is the period (peak-to-peak) distance for corrugated made with the Fiskars Crimper?
Would it be scale (or close) for 1:24 use?

Ed,
you can also use these disposable turkey pans if you only need a limited supply.. Or cookie pans. They only cost a dollar or so.

Ed:  I have used a craft foil called ArtEmboss in the past with good results.  It is available at stores like Michaels.  Comes in a tube containing a sheet about 8x10.  It is a heavy foil and when formed on Evergreen styrene sheet corregated it makes a very believable corregated roofing.  For what it is worth.

Caro, the valley-to-valley (easier to measure) was 0.080-in or 2.032-mm

Looking at Corrugated Metal there are all kinds of variations. In the Corrugated Galvanized iron wiki page it says that - "Pitches have ranged from 25 mm (1 inch) to 125 mm (5 inches)."

In O scale that .080" pitch is 3.84" or 1.944" in 1:24

Edit: If you look back to page 1 I posted a pic of my structure I did in 1:24 .. I used Fiskars Paper Crimper for that corrugation

John. That looks promising. I don't need much of an excuse to make a run to Michaels.   .. thanks
