Hello



No, I haven`t a 3D - printer and no CNC - machine at home.


All I have is some hobby - machines from Proxxon like a circular saw and a disc grinder and my own hands and the original drawings and a lot of evergreen material...Whistle


Best regards

And here some pics of the castings for the tunnel - segments.

A friend of mine made it with a 3D - printer.









The first segment is made with original concrete.....

Excellent work indeed. Work being a weak word: project of a lifetime is more appropriate.

And as I can see, I am not the only one having interest for model railroading besides. Wink

Wow, very nice and somewhat different of the layouts I am used to see here.

Looks so real, I wish I could be one of the characters with my pair of Volkls waiting for a train heading up to the mountains for a great ski day... Cool
Only problem is I would be waiting in there forever Teeth but could still enjoy this great scenery.

It also shows your talent in other skills, weathering for instance. Great job.
