Product Description
LMS 12 ton Ventilated Van - a pair of ends & buffers only - 7mm scale (1:43)
LMS 12 ton ventilated van corrugated ends to suit the later LMS diagrams described in RJ Essery's "An Illustrated History of LMS Wagons Volume 1". They are of the two part type, as opposed to the three part type used on some diagrams, and mainly suit the vans with horizontal planks rather than the plywood varieties. These also suit the BR pallet van conversions for which a pair of sides are available here on Shapeways (see link below). They will fit the sides for the old Freightman kits by Frank Titcombe (ideally the ones with 45degree corners not square corners - he did both). But please note they are not a substitute for the corrugated ends in the Parkside LMS van kits as those represent the earlier pattern.
You will receive two ends, with buffer stocks (no heads), they are supplied as a pair to keep printing costs down. You will need to provide all other parts to make a van, using spares sprues or left-overs from Parkside kits, ABS models, Freightman, or what-have-you; if you like building 7mm scale LMS kits you'll probably already know where to get the right parts.
Separate the parts carefully with a razor saw or snips, then clean thoroughly to remove any release agent or support wax. An ultarasonic cleaner is recommended, but do not get the parts too hot or they may warp. Please spray with a filler primer if necessary and then paint thinly to preserve the detail.
This item is listed in two materials, please check the properties of each one before ordering; we are very confident of the excellent surface finish and structural strength of Smooth Fine Detail Plastic (aka "FUD") and Smoothest Fine Detail ("FED") would be even better. We have test printed in PA12 Grey and found it lacks detail around the ventilators so discontinued this material. We do not offer models in Versatile Plastic..Ideal to use with our LMS/BR Pallet Van sides in 7mm scale: https://www.shapeways.com/product/X3EX2DVNT/br-lms-12-ton-pallet-van-sides-only-7mm-scale?optionId=180038486&li=shops
