After a little respite yesterday to review one weeks work. It’s time to move on again. I will try set out with the aim of working on an item for the layout a day. Working during the week on bite sized chunks to keep things progressing. There’s things like the fence, the handrail around the tipping deck, things like that. To that end I decided to start with the short section of fence around the end of the dock. It was simple enough to find drawings on the internet that showed the dimensions of a simple three rail fence.
First up I needed a couple of simple jigs to get the same sized parts to fit the same way.

| It might not look like much, but this simple arrangement of stripwood and foamcore board is the key to getting all the parts to fit. |
 |
| This is how it holds all the parts together. |

| The assembled fence. Next a quick wash with alcohol/India ink. |

| In place and ready to be bedded in |
One more simple job done.
