Weekly Report No 208, CW 43
From Monday, 18.10.2004 to Sunday, 24.10.2004
And once again a report with emphasis on Scandinavia but this shouldn't be a surprise for the alert reader of our pages ;-).
Real water and technics: The premodelled styrofoam is coated with glasmats and resin.
he evaporating odors of the solvent are really dangerous, so working is only allowed with adequate protection and there's definitely no public admission to the room.
This is a comparison of the first step and after re-working / improving of the underwater formations.
The most important change was ... but this can be seen by the knowledgable user himself ;-).
The skeleton makes good progress and...
...the scenery also reveals more of its future appearance.
Some more impressions ...
of the future 'bath tub ground' for 1:87 proportion ships ;-)
The station in the left part is fitted in and nearly completely wired while the small town is created in the workshops.
The prototype for the town is the danish town of Ribe.
Oops, what's this? The solution is in the next report ;-).
Bridge construction: This is the bed for the 750cm (24.6 ft) long suspension bridge over the water. The main span is 470cm (15.4 ft), the secondary spans are 140cm (4.6 ft) each. Raodbed plus trackbed sum up to 26cm (10.2 inches). In contrast to the prototype (inspired by the Størebelt - bridge), this structure carries cars and trains.
This bridge is for vehicles only. The prototype can be found somewhere in Norway.
Farmer's paradise or holiday camp?
These scenes belong to a project that will be explained in more detail next week.
