Hi Pieter, I agree, Just nice sides ends, and roof are all that one really
needs. The other basic parts already exist if we are willing to go out and look
for them,and most of us already have scrap boxes full of a lot of that stuff.
If anyone knows how to make 3 D cad files another option to consider would
be designing the parts and having a master 3 D printed then use that to mold as
many sides, etc. as wanted. The 3 D printing is charged by the quantity of
material(a TT scale PS2 hopper costs about $25 to print) so it might be too
expensive to print all the cars but printing one to use as a master would
spread out the cost per kit.....dave
