Title: Ironing board layout.
Post by: Puffing Billy on May 17, 2009, 08:23
Hi.

I have recently joined the '009 Forum.'

I am thinking of building an 'Ironing board' layout, and wondered whether there were any
'publications' on the subject?

Help with a general 'layout' - plans - photographs - 'build' guidance etc would be appreciated,
from anyone out there, who has undertaken such a 'project.'

Currently I have a 'redundant' 48" x 12" ironing board for such use.

I hope that this 'posting' might produce some help and advice.

Thank you.

'Puffing Billy.'

Try http://www.carendt.com/
For books, see if you can beg, borrow or otherwise acquire a copy of Michael Andress' Narrow Gauge Model Railways [Allmark Practical Guides] ISBN 0 85524 037 7 or his Narrow-Gauge Railways [PSL Model Railway Guide] ISBN 0-85059-453-7
There's a great deal more, but those two books have 48" x 12" NG track plans.
Have fun
Paul

I built a layout on an ironing board, it's named Dunbracken.  There are extensive details on it's construction here: http://www.rmweb.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=12098

Hope that is of some use, I realise your query was posted some time ago now, but i've only just come across this thread.
