Stour Valley Dream - fine detail laser wrangling
It never ceases to amaze me that my lasercutter can both crunch through 6mm ply for baseboard construction and do super detail work in 1mm MDF. I'd been asked to help with a 4mm narrow gauge Irish project the station building had rather impressive arches over the windows. This needed not just very fine cutting for the mortar lines but also some engraving to shape the bricks around the arch. These little beasts are 18mm across and cut in 1.5mm ply.
I also made up the chimneys for my model of Clare station building. The parts for these were also extremely fine. Again I am extremely pleased with the result. Bear in mind these rascals are only 32mm tall and the smallest is 8.5mm x 6.5mm.
Now I have been looking at the photographs of the prototype and I can only see a single chimney pot, what would the top of the chimney have looked like where there was no pot? Should I just put in a divider for the different flues?
