Flatcar scale 1:32

thingiverse

This Flatbed wagon is in 1:32 scale gauge 1. The platform is 230mm long, 262mm between the buffers. Axle holders are made to fit 3mm shaft. which means that the LGB's wheels and equivalent will fit in these. On these carriers i have done attachment for standard couplers such as LGB and equivalent. I have little experience of moving axles, but I have been testing it this winter, and it seems to work well. But you need something that keeps the wheels more or less parallel to the tracks.So I have tried with this variant, with a holder in the middle and straps in plastic (such you get post packets wrapped with) it has worked well so far. The holder has two holes of different width to fit the a suitable screw you have available at home. One can also use rubber band or elastic band. such Raby done on his model.

To check that the shaft will roll easily. if not, then fila out the hole a little bit. To wheel axle have i used polished 3 mm round steel Specially designed stakes to fit into this flatbed car. Has been designed by Raby. You can find these at this link. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1587831 To this trailer you can also have load poles at the sides.
