Well done - looks very good. I saw the TMC deal, but nothing on it to interest me at the moment.

Made some interior furniture for the new signal box. Yes, the signalman likes a comfy chair.

It's a start. That armchair is far too big and the table lamp and tea mug on the desk didn't print correctly but it's not the end of the world.
I have to make a frame to hold the signalling boxes and track plan above the lever frame - that's for tomorrow when I shrink the chair.
And while that's printing I hope to add lighting.

You have reminded me that I have a signal box to kit out - I have the kit and I think it includes an armchair. The interior of your signal box looks very good - colourful? I think I used the Swanage box for inspiration - lots of pics. on the net.

Wood, I would have thought.

Yes, I was thinking the same and expecting to see lengths of wood instead of what looks like blocks. Anyway, it looks superb. R-
