In the layout room, nobody can hear you scream

Experiment with Shapeways

I recently ordered a Westinghouse from Shapeways, the online 3D printing store. The transformer was a big pricey, $17.50 plus shipping and handling, but I decoded to give the online store a try.

The transformer looks good! I will use it as a load from Westinghouse at North Jefferson.

Joel Priest painted it for me, and gave it a quick bit of weathering to make the details pop.

Was it worth $17.50? I'm not sure, but it does look nice and I can be certain that not all N-scale layouts have the same item!
