    Stadium advice on seating

    Need some advice on building stadium seating. At the moment, I printed out on card and folded over. Ideally if I could find some L shaped plastic widgets. The seats are around 4mm wide.

      Yeah. Did think about this, but the problem would be cutting, as I'd want individual seats. I was thinking of foam stick on pads, which can be purchased in 5mm squares. I'd have to paint them though.

        OK the only other thing I can thick off but not sure how wide they are is the wooden coffee stirrers but might be a bit fiddly

          What about these from John's shop:





          I know you still have to cut them, but sitting them in a V-shaped groove (you'd have to make something I guess) would allow you to do that with just one cut.

            Cheers. But I'm not sure what you mean by just one cut. From what I see, I'd have to cut thousands to make the seats?

              Don't bother with seats and have it terraced.

              Coming soon: Airfix 1/72 Phantom FGR2.

                Sorry. I meant just one cut for each seat.

                  Yeah. That would probably take a long time. I'm going to try 5mm stick on pads, one for the seat and one for the back to try and recreate. I'll have to paint them insitu. I've contacted some plastics companies to see if they can help. If not I'd just stick with the seats printed on card as in the photo.


                  Rickoshea, it's has to be all seating; damn Taylor Report
