Well, I guess I'd better start on my coal cars now too! As Jim mentioned, I'll be using wood for my cars, although I'll do one starting with the PVC kit. I told the guys I'd have brass etched corner brackets made, guess I'd better follow through with that too. I'll do one or two cars with the individual brackets and the others with GrandtLine full corners.
These brackets will follow the pattern as seen in the photo of 4090 that Jim posted. The illustration represents one car's worth. The blue line will be a shallow etch on the back side for bending. My cars will be for a freelance road with a C&S influence. Got all the other parts and trucks, enough to build four.
The Shapeways stakes DID come out nicely... guess I'd better format the drawing for etching and send it out.
