Go to the hobby shop, a well equipped one, and you will find scale dimensional wood wood by either Kappler or Mt. Albert in correct sizes already for HO, S and O scales. You will see a packages marked for scale, say HO, and they will have 2 x 4 (or what ever the size) printed on them rather than the dimensions in inches. No hobbyshop nearby? Caboose Hobbies, or look in the back of MR and order direct. <br /> <br />Milling your own 2 x 4 s and 2 x 8s etc in HO is going to be a bit dicey without special equipment or take so long that you might want to consdider the commercial stuff. The drawback is the cost : around $2.50 for 6 or seven 2' sections. Micro Mark has better deals but you have to do the conversions from inches yourself.
