Vince66 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 okay getting close to building again within the next week or two. I need some help on the AMT lowboy trailer I have a friend that does 3D printing and I want to make a version of the AMT Lowboy trailer in 1/160th scale N scale for my train layout. particulars I need are the width of the trailer, the length of the upper nose deck of the trailer, the actual trailer deck surface from the bulkhead back to the front of the 1st rear axle. the rest we pretty much have figured out. I ask as ther are no trailers of this style in N scale. thanks ahead of time for any help that can be offered up. plus looking towards getting back to the bench to work on my ford C600 stakebed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wudwrkr Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 3-7/8 wide, upper deck-3-7/8 long, main deck-7-5/8 long, 3/16 from end of upper deck to start of main deck- that is the angle of the outside frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrKerry Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Also if you can find measurements of a real trailer they can be scaled down... Looks like Sam may have ya set on the general particulars though!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
