One has to have good eyesight and steady hands to model in N scale. So, yrs, it can be a real nightmare.</div>

<div dir="ltr">I’ve found that N scale is a real nightmare and the drawings have to be modified substantially to be able to produce a model when 3D printing. What works for O and HO doesn’t work for N, and what works for N would be outrageously out of scale
for HO. To do the No trespass sign, I basically had to double the thickness and extrude the letters out last the sign just to be able to make it legible in N scale, where in O scale you can read the tiny casting numbers. The railroad crossing sign is drawn
in O, scaled to HO. And is paper thin for N scale to the point it wasn’t usable and again had to be a separate model <img alt="image0.jpeg" data-outlook-trace="F:1|T:1" src="cid:F0AE9281-9997-40BA-85BF-CBE15A9604D1"></div>
