Model Forum / General / Railroads / March 2009Dangly bits
What's the proper name for the decorative dangly bits round the bottom of a station canopy? And does anyone know if you can buy it ready-made in LNER style?

Try googling for manufacturers of LNER station kits and see if they sell individual parts. >Guy > What's the proper name for the decorative dangly bits round the > bottom of a station canopy?

Those with good contacts with some senior school or college craft departments might find access at a much lower price. Requires a line drawing of the cutter path (eg. Corel Draw). Can cut most materials; paper, card, thin ply, some plastics, though notably not styrene. - Nigel SignatureNigel Cliffe, Webmaster at http://www.2mm.org.uk/ I'm sorry but I had to laugh, I have heard them called some things in my time by 'Dangly bits' is the best yet :-) You could try York Model Making .... I don't know if they do 'one off's' but if not they may know someone who does. http://www.yorkmodelmaking.com/modelrailway.html http://www.yorkmodelmaking.com/orderingpage1.pdf Chris It's not the size of the dog in the fight but the size of fight in the dog. >http://www.yorkmodelmaking.com/modelrailway.html > >http://www.yorkmodelmaking.com/orderingpage1.pdf Interesting, thanks.
