Tractorman810 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 prob to small to be honest, closest i have found is a pack of 6 granit loking walls, they say they are 1/35th so not to bad, prob is they aint cheap, think it was 10 quid for that pack, and it totaled less than 40cm in lenght all in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 I have four sections of walling at home. Forget the name, you can get razor wire sections and sandbag walls by the same maker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Ferguson Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 1/32 scale is G Scale I think.... I hope... You're absolutely correct Jez - G scale is just about 1/32 - I use it on Holly Farm quite a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Nice one Gav. If only I'd had the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Nice one Gav. If only I'd had the time Jez is the creator of the walling in question Tris, I'm only molding and casting them will be at last 12-18 hours before anything is cast though as they sent me the wrong silicone catalyst this time, slow instead of fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Mold went off quicker than I thought it would so here are the wall sections in question, each measuring 130mm x 75mm x 6mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 that modeled on the britains ones all put together?? looks good mate, how think are they?? and are they bricked on both sides Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 6mm thick as I said above mate and they are bricked on both sides. I'll let Jez explain the rest as he made the pattern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 6mm thick as I said above mate and they are bricked on both sides. I'll let Jez explain the rest as he made the pattern Well gentle men, and Gav.... I used the same walling that I used on my workshop walls. It is bricked on both sides and mounted to a piece of plastic coated wood. I am not sure how the top part of the wall has come out, maybe Gav could post up a pic. I sent him the wall because I know I could use some more again and thought it would cast well and he could judge the prosperitiy of casting them. Gav, how do you think they turned out mate? The grey coloured one looks almost brick colour. Af anyone want a different pic then check out the workshop in the Two oaks farm topic.

Gav836 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 The top edge of the wall is fine Jez, as has the whole thing, the grey one is your original that you sent me, I haven't played about with pigments on these ones yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
