Help- Need Drawings for Magnuson Model Fountain Brewery Kit 510
Posted by LARRY HURD on Sunday, December 2, 2018 7:38 AM

Does anyone know where I might be able to acquire the drawing sheets for the Magnuson Model "Fountain Brewery" Kit #510. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I looked on HO seeker, and I did not see them for this kit.

.

What are you needing to know? Have you ever assembled a Magnuson Kit?

.

For the most part, the kits are easy to figure out. The preparation work is the same for each one.

.

If you post pictures of the problem areas, maybe someone will know the answer.

As Kevin did, I looked around, and found nothing for this kit.  There is a picture on the box, lay out the pieces, and figue it out.

Google Magnuson Models Fountain Brewery and you'll see pictures of the model assembled, and the actual building it represents.

Hey Kevin,

There are a series of drawings 1-3. I have drawing 2. They basically layout dimensions for the loading platforms and show what lenths to cut the wood sections for decking and roof sections.

I did layout the pieces and without the diagrams it will be more challenging. I have not assembled a magnuson kit before, but I'll keep looking. I was hoping that maybe someone has assembled this kit and has a set of drawings that they might be able to e-mail.

Thank you for your advice and help. Much appreciated.

Hey Mike,

Yeah I did that and saw exactly what you're taliking about. There are some really good modelers out there and it definitely gives you better ideas for schemes.

Good advice, thanks for your help and I'm sure I will be able to complete this kit. It will just take a little longer is all.

Take Care, thanks again!

Larry,

I just moved, and am still unpacking all my boxes, I know I have this kit, but it has not been in any of the boxes I have opened up. When I find it, I will make a copy of the instructions, and send them to you. All I would need is your email adress, send me a PM with it.

Rule 1: This is my railroad.

Rule 2: I make the rules.

Rule 3: Illuminating discussion of prototype history, equipment and operating practices is always welcome, but in the event of visitor-perceived anacronisms, detail descrepancies or operating errors, consult RULE 1!
