Benchwork
Martin TärnrotDescription
The benchwork is the foundation on which you build your model railroad. Modeler Martin Tärnrot gives an overview of the common types of benchworks, what the pros and cons of each are, and which may be best for you depending on the type of model railroad you plan to build.
Martin covers L-Girder, Open Grid, Shelf, Modular, Solid Top aka Table, and Cookie Cutter benchworks. Next he builds an open-grid benchwork, showing the materials, useful tools and programs, and all the steps required to build it.
Here at MRA, we have a large collection of videos about Layout Planning to assist you before and after your benchwork is created.
