9781847978691: Designing and Building Model Railway Baseboards

Synopsis

This invaluable, well-illustrated book is essential reading for all those who wish to be guided through the potential pitfalls of making a baseboard and who require practical information about the different kinds of boards and how to construct them properly. Describes in detail how to build several different types of baseboards from the simple box frame, through the monocoque flat board, the drop board and insulation board, to multi-level boards and the helix. With the less adept modeller in mind, the author also explains how to make a baseboard with only a drill, a screwdriver and glue.

Describes in detail how to build several different types of baseboards from the simple box frame, through the monocoque flat board, the drop board and insulation board, to multi-level boards and the helix . Considers the vital importance of design, as well as size constraints and the required tools . Demonstrates how boards can be linked together . Discusses viewing heights and support systems . Examines sanding, finishing, lighting and background boards . Covers commercially made baseboards and buying second-hand boards .
