Here are a couple of hard-to-find items for the bridge scratchbuilders among us:
Company: BridgeMaster Division of Timber Products (no longer in business) Product Category: Structural steel scenery for discerning modelers. Printed on Label: Introducing the practical, affordable, alternative to hand embossing rivet heads in thin plastic. The BridgeMaster's FORM ALIGNED sheet parts are a product dream come true for modelers seeking fine scale, riveted, structural components. FORM ALIGNED parts are manufactured using a remarkable process that forms crisp rivet heads while simultaneously aligning them to scoring markers for easy, accurate part removal; hence the title, FORM ALIGNED. And, because the part outlines are only indicated, various other part types and sizes can be created by designating your own part lines. So, if you enjoy structural steel modeling, but loathe the task of hand embossing thousands of rivet heads, the BridgeMaster's FORM ALIGNED sheet parts provide an ideal, long awaited, modeling medium that quickly produces prototypical, thin-profile, realistically riveted components. All you do is score and snap! Printed on other side of label: Nearly 8,000 cleanly formed, correct profile, dome shaped rivet heads. Just score and snap. Rivet size: .018"-.020" in diameter. Made of high impact styrene. Heavy duty truss components (HO). Thickness: One sheet of .010" thick material and one sheet of .015" thick material. What is it in plain English: Two sheets of styrene, each about 8-1/2" by 13", which are embossed with thousands of rivets already configured to be made into various riveted bridge structural members such as: top chord cover plates, end post cover plates, top chord web, end post web, top chord reinforcement plate, bottom chord web, splice plate stock, diagonal web, post web, bottom chord reinforcement plate, portal angle face, diagonal reinforcement plate, top chord & end post angle faces, etc. Suitable for a medium duty S scale bridge although labeled for HO heavy duty.
