Replacement Plasticville Frosty Bar Sign

prusaprinters

<p>My O scale model train layout represents the section of the Pittsburgh &amp; Lake Erie Railroad between McKees Rocks and Youngstown.</p><p>I like Plasticville but the main town on my layout is not Plasticville but is Aliquippa, PA - my hometown. And in Aliquippa, we had a Dairy Queen.</p><p>I used OpenSCAD to create a program the makes a new sign for my layout.</p><p>Fonts were a problem especially for the "Dairy Queen" font. I found that the town name was pretty close to "Arial" but the original Frosty Bar sign did not match any font that I had available or any font that I could find. I ended up choosing the font "Pump Demi Bold LET". I adjusted the "spacing" parameter to try to match the original sign as well as I could. (Note: think about looking on Google Fonts.)</p><p>(Update 22 Oct 2021 - I have a version 2 of this sign which uses a different method to model the correct Dairy Queen font (https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/82488-dairy-queen-sign-for-plasticville-frosty-bar-v2)</p><p>More details on my 3D Print web page:</p><p><a href="http://www.silogic.com/trains/3D%20Prints.html#Frosty_Bar">http://www.silogic.com/trains/3D%20Prints.html#Frosty\_Bar</a></p><p>My layout web page: <a href="http://www.silogic.com/trains/layout.html">http://www.silogic.com/trains/layout.html</a></p>
