Model Railway Station Canopy & Bridge

thingiverse

Canopy and Pillars will feature a thicker Bridge side, measuring 5mm thick and extending 150mm long. These structures are meticulously crafted using 3D printing technology with a layer thickness of 0.1 mm, requiring the Station Canopy Pillar to be printed with a Raft at 100% infill for optimal stability. Recent updates have led to revised Bridge STLs, which were reprinted at a higher resolution of 0.2mm. The result is three distinct top strips: one measuring 160mm in length, another 135mm, and the smallest at 75mm. These dimensions provide ample space for accommodating 1, 2, or even 3 tracks. Meanwhile, a Turntable project is currently underway, with plans to upload the design as soon as it's complete and accurately dimensioned. However, users should note that this model will require a printer capable of producing prints exceeding 300mm in width. The main body of the Turntable will be crafted from 12mm plywood, with a base depth of approximately 25mm. Additionally, an Arduino Uno and Nema 17 stepper motor will work together to drive the turntable's rotation. Please note that this project remains a work in progress, and completion is expected within a couple of weeks.
