Modelling Tip Of The Day – 14
This Modelling Tip Of The Day is an ongoing series, in which we’ll be posting a modelling tip that may be of use to the newbie right up to the seasoned modeller.
Today’s tip is:
Choosing the right Timber
When selecting timber for your layout framework & baseboards at DIY shops & timber merchants, be careful with the timber & sheet material you select. Go for the sheet material that is stored flat rather than being stored standing up or on its side. Stored standing up or on its side can lead to warping out of true. With packs of timber take your time in selecting, & don’t take the first pack of timber on the shelf. Go for the straightest timber battens that you find in stock.
Taking care at this stage will give the best materials to work with, whilst building your baseboards.
