These models are available completely assembled or as a kit, Arches and railings are partially assembled. 2mm stainless steel bolts, nuts, washers and glue are included. |
All parts of the bridge are made of oak. The deck is made of red cedar. |
The structure is bolted together, just as is the full-sized bridge. |
Everything fits together very nicely which, at that scale, is a major accomplishment, considering that each part is wood, individually cut and drilled by hand, not punched plastic perfection.
|
Each piece is a perfect miniature replica of the full size bridge. |
Scale is only determinable by handrail height. This model has 2" high railings which suggest a scale of about 1/20. A 1" high rail, perhaps with a wider deck, would suggest a scale of 1/40 ~ 1/60.

Load test. (Do not try this at home :-) |
