I am looking for a sheet of open grate material for the porches of a transfer caboose. I would MUCH prefer it is brass (over stainless) and possibly up to .020 thick. I would prefer thicker than thinner. The real openings are 1 x 6. I doubt that there is anything measuring a true 1 x 6 in S Scale so somewhat larger holes are better than smaller. I like the see though aspect of it all.
I need at least 2 sheets 2 x 1 ¼. The long part of the openings follow the 1 ¼ direction. I have to make notches in it for the steps from that footprint. I am not opposed to buying and cannibalizing a kit or other detail package if the price is reasonable. I already have lots of Precision Scale etched sheet that looks like diamond plate. That is just not going to do it. I possibly wont attempt the project if I cant get suitable open grid material. That is a big part of the character of the car. Equally I really cant piece together a roof walk. It would not be strong and probably very obvious. Please reply directly to [email protected] with links or hints where I can get this material.
