About Me
Hi everyone! I'm a passionate model railroad enthusiast and maker from Switzerland, specializing in HO scale (1:87) dioramas and layouts, and RC 1/14 construction vehicles.
I love combining 3D modeling, 3D printing, and laser cutting to create detailed rolling stock, buildings, and scenes – often scratch-built from real-world references like archive plans and photos.
On my Reddit posts in r/modeltrains, you've seen my projects come to life: custom freight cars, a recreated hometown railway station, construction scenes with excavators, and my latest shelf layout in progress.
Why Support Me?
Creating these models takes a ton of time – from researching blueprints, designing in CAD, testing prints/cuts, to assembling and detailing. Your support on Buy Me a Coffee helps me cover materials (filament, plywood, acrylic), tools, and maybe even upgrade my setup so I can tackle bigger and more ambitious projects.
In return, every contribution keeps me motivated to share more progress updates, behind-the-scenes, free STL files (when possible), tips & tutorials, and exclusive WIP photos.
If you enjoy my builds and want to see more detailed Swiss-inspired layouts or custom rolling stock, buying me a coffee is a huge encouragement!
Thank you so much for stopping by – whether you donate or just drop a message, it means the world to me. 🚂
