Hi Georg, my designs will scale to 1:35 scale file, you just need to print them at 218%. I try to add more detail than can be printed at 1/76 scale so ideal for larger scales.

Pete

Hi Chris and happy to help.

RLB4 and RLB5 are the items that go between the bridge section and the lift tower. The easier way to build is work everything around the steps CL1. Attach things that make the most sence and then see whats left. It does seem quite complex but as it goes together it gets clearer. The two door looing bits are side panels for the step section.

If needed you can contact me via facebook and we can share emails so I can help easier.

Pete

ok will print out some more of the bridge section and see how it goes. Really like your models, have printout loads of them so far for the model railway -

How did you get on with printing the bridge?

Pete

What type of printer did you print these on?

flashforge pro pla filament

That’s because they are designed to be printed on resin printer as outlined in the description. Small detailed items are always best printed on a resin printer. FDM printers cannot print small items very well.

Pete

What fence type are you talking about? I have several designs for sale. When I design things, I copy things that actually exist, or I can find actual drawings of the item.

My items are designed in OO gauge, but within your slicer, you can scale them to the gauge you are modelling in

Gary

I have added as much detail as I can i case someone wants to print them in O gauge, you can easily scale my designs up in your slicer. In the slicer print at 175% and you will get the design in O scale. I'm not sure what you're referring to in the first part of your question.

Pete

Sorry for the delay, it's been a busy week with other commitments. Will try and have a look, have you got any links to pictures I could look at for reference.

Pete

Just to let you know I have received photos from Charlie. Will start having a look at the end of the week.

Hi Grant, thank you for buying my items in the past. I have been talking to Charlie about you. I will try and have a look at this next as I'm between projects at the moment. I will need to do some research and start having a look, it may take a short while as very busy this week and next. Charlie has given me a point lever from a pack he had, so I can get an idea of shape and size. As depots have different variations of single levers and multiple levers on a small frame, I may do this as a multi-design with the different variations.

Pete

I get what you are saying, the don’t have a laser printer and therefore have no idea how they work. My designs are aimed at the 3D FDM and resin market, yes the design would likely be quicker on a laser printer, a lot of people have FDM printers but don’t have a laser printer.

I hadn't realised the brick filament I used was missing from the list. This has now been added to the description.

I used ELEGOO Marble PLA Filament 1.75mm Brick Red (Do not use a 0.2mm nozzle when printing with this filament, it will block the nozzle as I found out the hard way).
This is my affiliate link to the Filament https://amzn.to/47REVQ7, or you can source yourself.

As a little thank you for highlighting if you use this code you will get 20% off my designs in future - PJD2023.

Pete

Hi Pete, thanks for getting back to me.
I’ll order some through your link and thank you for the code. I’ll be sure to use it when I order the middle stairs.

Kind regards
Chris

Thank you for your e-mail. I have had a look and had a thought. All my Patreon commercial tiers are based on an average of 20% of any profit someone makes from selling my designs as printed items. An agreement between us would need to be based on this percentage. The biggest reason I still sell items at a discount is to know exactly what someone has bought from me, so if the agreement ends, I can see if anything from my designs is still being sold. hope you can understand that.

The £50 option actually gives you 80% off my designs and any bespoke higher value tiers; this percentage could easily be increased.

With regards to designing items, then what I can do will be limited as I do this for a hobby and a lot of my designs are done for a reason. I have a full-time job and a family that uses a fair amount of my time. Happy to look at the odd item tho, but it would be in the category of designs I tend to do.

Pete

Hi Pete, sorry for the late reply. If we were to do the £50 for 80%, what files would we NOT have access to please?

I have also sent you a private message via facebook messenger

Neil, this is now sorted, and the bridge section has been added. Sorry about that. This was a big project and quite complex to put together. Please ignore the 3mf files, they got included by accident and are used by my Bambu Labs printer. The lift step base goes between the tower cladding and the steps; it supports the bridge section.

If you have any more questions, please contact me.

Pete

That's great. Thank you for replying so quickly. I'll get the 3D printer fired back up!

I'm not sure where your other message went, but I noticed I had added two versions of the claded bottom. This is now fixed. Thanks for highlighting my mistakes. To say thank you, if you use this coupon code, you will receive 20% off my designs in the future. Code = PJD2023

Pete

Sorry - I tried again and the file seemed fine, so I assumed i'd made a mistake and deleted my message. The fact that there were two copies explains my confusion! Thank you for the coupon.

I do not sell printed files as I don't have the time or the resources to do this. There are other people out there who may do this for you.

Pete

Paul I might have a look at it, would need to find a coach to design and test with. Look me up on Facebook Peter Darton from Yeovil.

Malcolm

Sorry if you have an issue, I will have a look when I get home later from work and update you once I have had a look.

Pete

I have had a look and checked files on website and visual view is correct, I also keep on my computer all the files that I upload and these are also correct. Maybe worth downloading again, I did notice you purchased these back in February. If there is a issue then this might help, its a coupon to get 20% of any of my items in future (Coupon Code = PJD2023)

Pete

Rowdy, really sorry about that. I have now added them, and you should be able to download them now.

If you have any more issues, please feel free to contact me.

Pete

On your computer you will need to uncompress the files and you will be able to use all the STL files.

Pete

It’s a good idea of something to do but I just can’t go and copy the Bachmann version, ideally I need to model from the real thing. Any ideas on where there is one of these and maybe I can have a trip sometime.

Pete

Louis, the way the message got sent to me it doesn’t say what design you are talking about?

Pete

This is to print this project .DESIGN 1657945. Thank you. Louis

Took a bit of finding as items are not listed with item no, Luckily items are in numerical order. The irem your looking at can be printed with a FDM printer, will need supports when printing and will need supports properly removed after you have printed.

Hello, thank you for your reply. Printing with support is fine. Thank you.

I have used different lengths depending on what type of coach I have fitted them to. If you let me know what make and model of coach you have, and if I have any of the same, I will let you know what size I used.

Cheers mate I have mk3 carriages hornby and Lima

On my Hornby MK3 coaches (HST), I used the 10mm version. Hornby coaches can vary a lot, so no guarantees.

Pete

My wagons have been designed in OO scale, which is slightly bigger than OO if you buy some OO scale wheels, they will be fine on HO scale track, as OO rolling stock uses HO scale track.
