Description
This collection of signs includes crossbucks and track quantity signs, “Tight Curve”, “Yard Limit”, and smaller, assorted detail signs. I do not have an AMS, so I do my filament change manually. There is a pause in the g-code. This is where I change from white filament to black. All the signs are built to the same heights, so they can all be printed at the same time. They are designed at 1:24 scale. The crossbucks are based on American standards, the rest are just what looked good.
I use styrene for my posts. Here's how I build them.
Instructions (Crossbucks)
Yard / Tight: ¼" square styrene rod, 50mm length
Oval Signs: 1/8" square styrene rod, 50mm length
Instructions can also be found here.
