Model Railway Gantry

thingiverse

I printed model railway gantry and several aspect signal LED holders. The gantry was printed at 0.2mm layer thickness, while smaller items were printed at 0.1mm layer thickness. The ladder used for this project is based on a design from Newcastle Central, which I accessed through the following link: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3635986. Special thanks go out to the creator of this video series. For the single aspect signal, I utilized a 5mm RGB LED. After printing the gantry with supports in place, smoke deflectors may become disorganized. To prevent this issue, use selective supports in your slicer software or modify and model a deflector to remove the gantry with deflector altogether.
