3Dprintolutions

Following a post in the Forum of the Welsh Railways Research Circle, I obtained several 3D prints of old wagons and documented my experiences with them, primarily to help the designer Andrew Smith. He's agreed to making my observations available for others: you may download the pdf file.


A selection of scratch built items.
