Is this the feature we're discussing? If so, does this photo accurately represent the prototype? http://www.trainweb.org/jlsrr/livesteam/wagon-top-boxcar/wagon-top-1/full-pictures/wagontop10-web.jpg IF so, then it is not clear to me how a triangular cross section is good to use; using wire to get the outer radius, then fill in the gap between the wire and the sheet metal sides seems a rational approach. Anybody got access to the prototype to verify what the real shape is? ===== Ted Larson __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Take Yahoo! Mail with you!
