Scale Art Parts-F Scale came about as the result of building custom structures in 1:20.3, (F) scale. I found there was virtually nothing in the way of scale doors, windows and details in 1:20.3. Most of the structure are on Tom Miller’s fantastic D&RGW/RGS indoor layout.

In collaboration with Joe Crea, we continue to add to the line of products which now includes some figures. Our intention is to add a great many new pieces in the upcoming year, (2010).

Our buyers have been very complimentary on the quality of our parts. Great pains are taken to ensure that each part that leaves our shop is the best we can make. Our quality control is stringent, which often results in a lot of discarded parts, but the result is that you our customers are getting the best of the best each and every time.

Should a part slip through that is sub-par, let us know and it will be replaced pronto!!! We take great pride in our products and we know if they fit the bill, cause we use them too.  

 

When painted, these parts will withstand the rigors of outdoor exposure.

This 1:20.3 scale model of the Coaling Pocket at Vance Junction is constructed primarily of wood. The apron doors, however, are cast resin parts that are available from Scale Art Parts. Do to space constraints this model was constructed with 6 pockets instead of the prototype’s 8.

The windows and doors used on this model of the ” Placerville Depot” are cast from our own patterns and molds. These cast parts are now available to the F scale builder for  your own structure projects.  

The multitude of windows installed in this stamp mill would have made for a long and tedious job of scratch-building each window without the cast units, (FW9), that were used. There is also a variety of our cast doors used  here as well.

Vance Junction; where it all began. This was the first of the structures completed for Tom Miller and it was immediately evident that I would need a way to produce quantities of windows and doors to suit the structures. For Vance I mastered FW 1,2,3; FD 1&6 plus FA 1&2, (the chimney and Corbelled top). The coach body was built from a Hartford kit, the rest is scratch-built.
