    Thank you for your kind reply.

    I borrowed Boomer (Boomer Diorama - YouTube) scratch build video and basically put this thread together as a step by step build tutorial.

    Cheers, Gary.

    I love Boomer's work. He truly is a master of our craft. What I like best about him is that he makes it so accessible for those who want to learn his techniques.

    I've made a PDF of your tutorial to keep offline. Let me know if you would like a copy.

    I have a technical document that I've put together to help me when I scratchbuild my own poles and transformers in the future.
    I've uploaded it for anyone interested in PDF format: Scale Modelling Article_Technical Scratchbuild US power poles_Andrew Martin_Published (V 1.0).pdf

    This will become an invaluable resource for modellers wishing to detail their layout with nicely detailed utlity poles. Thanks for sharing your file on thread !

    Cheers, Gary.

    No problems at all. I'm a detail person, so I think through things like this all the time before I begin any project.

    Is there a way to create a gallery for these types of publications? I tried to find a way to create a gallery, but alas, no luck.
