Wood Chopping Party
Tonight i worked on cutting the subroadbed for
the section of mainline from SE Junction to Byers which includes the Meramec
River crossing. I used the same technique as before. I cut out the paper CAD
drawings into templates, taped them to my sheet of plywood, traced them out, and
then used a jigsaw to cut them
out.Here is photo of the hidden return
loop with the subroadbed that was cut the week before with the paper templates
laying on top.
I also chopped a whole lot of 1x3s
into 4" lengths and 1x2s into 4" lengths. I then glued them together to make a
whole mess of risers. This is all prep work for Thursday, when my BRVRR group
friends come over to my house this
week.
I still need to assemble about 10
risers, and that should give me about 50 or so.
