Is there somewhere I can get some "GOOD" 3 view drawings? I'm a reformed RC aircraft scratch builder and would love to try my hand at building some trains.
My first scratch build will be some beam-less logging cars for my Shay, I've also seen a picture of a nifty little logging caboose that sits on one truck.
Of course, building a loco is a whole deferent game!
Right now I'm rebuilding 1/3 of my workshop to be dustfree for my layout.
The RC world and MRR world are quite a bit different when it comes to drawings. It's not as easy to get rolling stock and locomotive drawings as it is for planes. Free, that is...
There ARE quite a few available, but you usually need to pay a small fee in some way. Most drawings that are available will be found in MRR magazines, and some in books. Very few will be available online. But... If you have anything specific in mind, let us know. I'm sure
someone has it on file. :thumb:
And most drawings will be based on photos, so you get a side view, and ...maybe... a front view. Getting a top-down, or rear view is like winning the lottery.
But... like I said, let us know what you're interested in and we can help you get there. (or maybe provide the drawings)
I've got my Grandson helping tile a new floor; I had to promise him I'd let him run over some scale cows with the 4-4-0!

Who doesn't like to run over some cows once in a while? I have a few bears I like to use, as well. :mrgreen:
