Title: "Latticework"
Post by: Adrian on June 27, 2015, 06:57:45 PM
Sorry,couldn't think of the right name for this ........

Does anyone know of a source of etchings that I could use to make a kind of "gantry" to support things.

So not as small as say a lattice signal post, but not as large as say a footbridge side.

Sorry to be a bit vague here - hopefully folk can tune in to my thinking.

And hopefully come up with a supplier!!

Thanks

Adrian

There's always the (plastic) latticework from the Ratio signal gantry kit.

They have a fret of trusses shown. No idea what it's actually like but the etches I have used from them in the past have been good.

Some of the N Brass etched catenary portals might be useful.
