A few time is gone and after a short hesitation I have started to my plastic age. From this I should generate car models now?

First step is a simple one - floor plates without fixing to bodies.

My friend suggested to build boxes in order to get an accurate to measurement and angular base for the models - which must be covered only with the preformed wood-shaped thinner plastic at end.

One of these blocks that looks more like an open box - already filled with lead for the correct weight of model.

My most important working tool for exact and angular grinding of parts and whole blocks.

Cover plates for the roof, very exact inserted into the open boxes and each with a different edge for a clear assignment of boxes to roofs. (I need the boxes in an open condition for next times until I have secured steps and grab irons from inside.)

And now - I hope that you can recognize that these could be railroad cars in the future?
