Scratch build HO Trestle

Posted by MonkeyBucket
on Tuesday, August 30, 2011

I had recently been replacing some 4.4metre or approx 14x16 feet Oregon sliding doors at the in the Port of Fremantle here in Western Australia. The doors had served their purpose of almost 80 years of weather and abuse and yet the timber had retained its strength and character well. As a Carpenter I am not one to to toss out good timber, so I took it upon myself to salvage the bulk of it.I will be using it to frame out my new layout. I woill first be resizing the sections as they are 8x2 inch. With the offcuts I was able to carefully rip down scale sized sections of wood to use in a project I was planning. This is it so far.
