And this is the result of frame deformations - like I would get it
Removing from the press jig after wood is dried
Aging for 20 years in 2 days - using a big press jig and drying the water soaked frame in this pressed position
How I work - gluing background wood for fascia top on end sills and fixing with a press jig for drying
How I work - gluing the end wood strips with white glue and drying in fixed position
The frame work is completed, all end bracing is added
View on end - yet without all bracing
frame view
Side girders are glued on frame - the parts changed to a box (car)
brake beams and brake shoes from the first attempt
Old sprunged trucks changed to wood bolster and added truss rods
Starting with side girders for a second attempt
The first attempt ended as wayside structure in a very bad condition
The basic of my project
