Hi All This is the start of a series of up/down loads of footprint drawings of Great Western special chairs. Each chair was measured on site and drawn full size ie.12" to the foot, please note there are some discrepencies with David Smiths book drawings in his book GW switch and crossing practice. Each chair foot print is drawn full size, I have omited check and wing rails as in model form these may vary according to scale and standards used. Also I shall be uploading photo's of each chair. I am starting with switch chairs. For those who are not au fait with GW practice each switch comprises of a number of slide chairs plus a loose heel chair before the fishplate and a 2S chair after the fishplate. Cheers Phil Attached file: switch_chairs.dxf . (click link above with right mouse button, then select Save Target As... or Save Link As... ) |

John Lewis wrote: What program has .dfx files, please?Hi John, DXF files are used for engineering drawings in CAD programs. (Templot can export DXF files so that users can see their track plans in such programs and add the remaining layout details as an engineering drawing.) Some other programs can also display DXF files, although not with the precision of a CAD program. For example a photo editor program such as PaintShopPro can display a DXF file as an image. regards, Martin. |
