Fencing & Gates
I've always been a fan of planked timber projects and used to spend a fortune on model aircraft quality timber. Perfect for models requiring perfect timber, but sometimes, lolly sticks work just as well.

UK - Lolly sticks are available from Wilkinsons/Wilco (£1 for 50) and The Works (£1 for 100) and, of course, there's a few on eBay.

Another fence was required for the new end 'board' to sit between the workshop and board edge. Lolly sticks again, but with panels between posts, and a gate. This time, the panel was painted black, representing the left-over dirty oil treatment often used.

On the other side of the workshop, a gate was required to dissuade unauthorised access to the quayside not now part of the railway. Various security gates were considered, with a view to visually blanking-off the edge of the board, but in the end, a small open gate based on traditional level crossing designs was made.
