You work on so many different items and do it at an astounding pace. Could you bottle some of that energy and send it in this direction? This 80 year old could sure use some of it. Smile

Amazing work too. Toast Toast Toast

I suddenly had a flashback of Robert Vaughn in Heer uniform, attempting a bad German accent....

Nice project, though. Yes

I see the bridge as part of a train diorama. Something from the 1870s or 1930s.

OK. In the stash: Way too much to build in one lifetime...

I had some dollar store popsicle sticks lying around and I decided to try my hand at making a bridge.Drafted a basic pattern and covered it with wax paper and will experiment with wooden tie plates.Might be used for train, slot car  and perhaps a diorama...
