The model railroading scene isn’t what it used to be. Gone are the days of cardboard cutouts and simplistic skeletal frames of trains. In the current era, where design technology reigns supreme, model railroading has transformed into a fine art form. Now, with the help of 3D printing, technology is again reshaping this hobby, putting complex, custom designs literally at the fingertips of enthusiasts. This article will explore how 3D printing tools, specifically Xuron® Models 410T, 410A, and Model 450 TweezerNose™ Pliers, have become indispensable to the creative process and hobbyists at every skill level.
