Canvas Covered Machinery-#2 3pcs We just recently discovered even more of these Canvas Covered Machinery #2 resin castings. Even though the bottom of the casting is flat, I found that I can create the look that the covered equipment is sitting on a pallet supported by vertical boards. I do this by simply cutting to size & cementing scale 2"x4" wood (not included) in two or three places evenly spaced so that the fork lift driver doesn't have to struggle getting the forks under the load. A thinned wash of Doctor Ben's Realistic Oak (#1081) or Doctor Ben's Natural Pine (#1082) will create that finish look to the scale wood nicely. That said, we "still" have a number of other "Covered Loads" also coming up so allow your imagination to wonder as to how to use them. Obviously, they will look great on a loading dock and just inside a warehouse door for additional detail. But, I can see the loads riding on a flatbed truck and/or trailer as well as a flatcar sitting on a siding or traveling around the track. You be the judge; it's your railroad empire!
