QUOTE How do I get a difference in height of 15cm with a length of 40cm with 12 cm MDF?
Frank, tell me if I understand...

You want to create a difference of 150mm in height, with a piece of MDF 400mm long and 12mm thick?
The MDF will bend, although you may need to do it gradually.
I have read of people using water, but I would think this would be no good for the MDF after a while.
Try increasing the height a bit at a time, maybe a cm or two each day... let it take shape slowly.

Or cut the underside with a saw or router across the board, this will allow some flex too.

I hope you understand...

Nice work Frank... could we see a closer shot of your Dremmel work please???
Especially the pathway in the last pic!!

 

[knoath]

Great work, lots of hours!

Appreciate the time and effort you're putting in Frank.
Thanks for the pics, we can learn a lot from them.

Dick

 

[knoath]

Unbelievable!

Just brilliant... and I don't mean the brightness of the lights!

 

[knoath]

Your work is of a very high standard, and I like the way you build from scratch... this really shows your talent!
Don't stop now Frank!

 

[knoath]

So fast!

Frank, I love the effect of the iron walls here (on the right):

Can you tell me... is this printed or actual corrugated cardboard, weathered to look rusted?

Can we see some more close up pics of it please?

Cheers,
Dick

I wish I had 190 figures to paint!
What did you use for the bolt heads Frank? You really work at speed, don't you?

Cheers,
Dick

Where do you get such small nails?

 

[knoath]

Frank, I'm gobsmacked!!!

The detail you are achieving in your buildings is wonderfull!
Thank you for the MB ltd link!
I haven't found a distributer that displays prices yet though, and none in Australia it seems!

I have just had the opportunity to begin some buildings of my own, now after seeing yours I feel like throwing my hands up in despair! But I also feel inspired, so as soon as I get more done I will show you ... thanks for continuing to post such wonderfull pictures of your fantastic talents!

Lovely job on the water tank, Frank!
I have a request... could you post (or PM) some pics of the house in the background of this pic please?

I would like to see the roof and windows.

Thanks,
Dick

Thanks Frank, very nice close up pics!
I will add lights to my track one day... I need a month of Sundays to get any time out there!
I will refer to your wonderfull build, no doubt!

Great pics Frank.
Q1, what product did you use for the grass in this pic?

Q2, what wire did you use for the ladder here...

and what tools/method were used to get the straight lines and neat bends?
