60´Gallows turntable for HOn3

[Graffen]

Hi!
This is my new project.
The Model Masterpieces D&RG 60' Gallows turntable in HOn3.



I will, also build the Como Roundhouse to complete the scene.
The drive for the turntable will be a step motor with full indexing. It is a system developed by a friend of mine and very fool proof!

I bought this kit second hand, and it misses the spider gear housing...
I will try to make a new by 3D printing it.

This is a good plan showing how I will do the drive:

I started the build by staining and adding grain to the wood. The stain is Isopropyl alcohol and wiper fluid mixed with vallejo burnt umber and black.



After it dries, I will lightly sand them to remove the fuzz.
More to come soon!
