Hi! This week I've been making a model of a beautiful wooden platform from early 1900s. The construction is not very complicated or demanding.
The total work time for a 700mm platform was about 8 hours including integration on the layout.

Beautiful!
Thanks for sharing with us.

It looks really neat. Great work. Have you thought about scoring some cross lines in the individual "boards"? Like a scale 8' or whatever length they would have used.
The beams were spaced at one centimeter intervals so it would make sense to make the cuts at 4 or 5 centimeters and offset the next row by one centimeter.
since the end points should be nailed to center on the beams . I am not sure what would have been the length of pre-cut or standard lumber at that point in time and at that place . John2.
