Time to fence it in

The laser is capable of cutting most materials but one of the best results we can get comes from cutting card. It will cut card to to almost any minute detail you need and without burning it. So with this in mind I have come up with some card based products that need the extra detail.

The first is some modern security fencing, pre-coloured in grey so no need for painting:

The 3 prongs on the top of each post are approx 0.5mm, here is a close up (excuse the poor picture)





Because it is made of card you can shape or put a 90 degree joint very easily. (see link below)

These are used up and the country, in railway yards, industrial estates, schools etc etc. Basically they are everywhere and can now be on your layout.


We have also come up with some Iron railings. Again pre coloured for ease: These have not been put up for sale yet but will be the same price as the modern security fence above. These come with 2 straight sections and a gate section. Perfect for a school or factory scene. They have a spear top and very fine rails (approx 0.3mm width)



Let me know what you think and if there are any other types or styles we should be producing
