    Second opinions on a shelf layout idea?

    Hello, it's been a while since I've posted here. My previous layout project was put on hold after moving to a place without space for anything, but now I was able to convince her who must be obeyed into allowing me to use one wall of the bedroom for building a layout. Given that space is still...

    1:2,160???

    The one on the corner of the table? Looks great and a real exercise in micro-modeling. Hopefully you'll be able to finish it fullsize...well...1:160...someday. Always enjoying the pictures.

    Funiculars by Brawa

    That is so cool. I don't know more about it, other than that a year ago or so I brought up the idea of building a funicular on these very forums. (never did anything with the idea btw)

    As it's the former Soviet Sphere of Influence, yes, it is broad-gauge.

    "N" scale Narrow Gauge Disneyworld Mk4 monorail

    Indeed, so it seems. I wonder how well distributed 3d print shops are though. Do you know how expensive is a. getting someone to make a model and b. printing it at an acceptable resolution?

    "N" scale Narrow Gauge Disneyworld Mk4 monorail

    I've never had the opportunity of using one but this is what I think I know: 3d printers are very neat little tools/toys that might be the future according to some. Think of it as a very crude form of replicator technology from Star Trek: ([...], tried to explain it myself, but it's early in the...

    No cardstock from 3d printers. Amazing nonetheless.

    $1,000 for an empty Lionel box??

    Rare and oop cardboard box. Valued exactly at how much someone will pay for it. Indeed. ebay is a great place to make money. (I must be a fool throwing most cardboard boxes away. Some I use for modeling. Saving them all would make me a rich man someday...)

    How to scratchbuild a boat like this?

    North of Sweden, nice, that helps. I found some drawings of a boat which looks a bit like what you're planning to build: En presentation av fartyget M/S Gustaf Wasa If you have that boat floating just there nearby, you could start by maybe asking the owners of the café if they might have...

    How to scratchbuild a boat like this?

    Balsa, plasticard and a lot of patience. I'm not sure if there are any good plans available, but it shouldn't be too difficult to draw something based on the photo's you posted. Once you have that, construction should be relatively straightforward. What's the exact place of the world you're...

    Regarding very tight circles...

    Tons of German prototype short passenger coaches. Two and three axle stuff. But...they're German prototype.
