N Scale Train Trays

Beschreibung

When I first started with our N-Track club I would keep all of my locomotives and cars in there original boxes. This made it take longer to setup and cleanup. So the next thing that I did was take tackle box trays and line them with craft foam. I save all of the original boxes. And the tackle box trays were set up as cosises. But it was a problem removing the lids and get to the box that I wanted. So after purchasing a 3D printer I deiced to 3D print trays with open tops. Didn't work out as planned. Could not print as big as I wanted and the trays were always warped. So next try was to purchase trays and 3D print divider for them and line them with craft foam. So this is how I setup the system to meet my needs. Trays were set up to support conist. I used a Brother Label Printer to print labels to put on the four sides of the trays. You can stack up to 14 trays. The top tray should be empty (or just paperwork) A strap is use to protect the continence if they get tipped over. If you are only taking a couple trays you need to use the shorter strap. After you get the strap around the trays you can lower it into the carry bag. I normally carry it by the handles and the strap just to be safe. I started out printing boxes with five sides. I found out it worked better to print four sided boxes. If you face the opening towards the center it makes it twice as wide. Them cut the craft foam to the full width. I have also designed mini extensions to reduce warping. They are also easier…
