9 and 6mm baseboard components
I am finally underway with the assembly of my baseboard modules. Having collected the cut timber from the timber merchants in Oxford, I have spent the last few weekends carefully marking out the components for the 9 separate boards which I am assembling. I have now reached the stage where I will be drilling out the enlarged holes for the alignment dowels before assembly of the tops, sides, ends and supporting battens
The design is based on the same principles of the the new layout based on Oxford being built by High Wycombe club of which I am a member. I am indebted to the Chairman for supplying all the assembly diagrams and drawings.
I am confident that the new design will solve the problems encounted on my previous layout which was built on a framework of 2x1 softwood and sundeala boards. Although this lasted 10 years, there were various niggles in the design which caused poor running. This is something I intend to iron out with the new boards built from 9 and 6mm plywood.
I will update on my the next stage of the project in due course
