Model-4CLF Cresta Bianca

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

Just added a small "widget" to valley station



Now I will start work at the mountain station. I've got a good project in my mind.

[4CLD_Gampebahn]

Looks very Nice Marco =)
When I see your Maintance Cabin i remember that i Should Build a new one for my T-Barlifts

I´m very glad to see Photos of the Uper Station too.

Greetings Jochen

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

Many thanks Jochen
Here is the project, unlucky I will have only few free time now, because school will start tomorrow

[Dieseltom]

Non piangere Marco. Scuola e importante per la Vita e per futura. Eccho! Grande Funivia la Cresta Bianca! Ciao adesso ! Tommaso!

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

Thanks DieselTOm, lucky I always find some free time for my model.
Just a photo-news:

[Seilbahn123]

Is this the "Stationssteher" (how is it called in english?? ) If yes, then it will be very stable.

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

I don't know, but it's the cement's plinth. It's very well built with four M4 bars in the it.

[Dieseltom]

Il fundamento terrazza per la stazione ? , Funivia 123 non capisce come se dice fundamento terrazza in englese......." . Saluti da Tommaso.

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

Yes, it's "fondamenta per stazione"

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

Upper station grows slowly...

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

Hi to all, mountain station is quite finished, I added all leds and they work fine (I posted some pictures about on FaceBook). But I have to change pulleys with bigger new ones. So I will have to modify some parts at supportowers.
I also re-solded some parts at the maintenance basket and I added the two meshes:

[Petz]

Nice pictures and the tablet for the tools and replacement parts looks great.

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

Hi guys!
I have some news for you.

I haven't got photos from the model, but I'd like to show you the new piece which I built yesterday. It is a double effect sheave batteries, it works great, like reals. It works with JC models too





The model's track will have got 5 towers with sheaves batteries of 4,6 and 8 wheels each + the double effect which you have just seen. Quite all sheaves batteries are already ready to run and they works great too.
Towers will be in brass (thanks Markus ) with many partculaurs. The tower which you have just seen is still the old one in aluminium.

Stations are a bit evoluted from last photos and I will take some photos when my table will be much more clean than now

So I wish you a happy new year 2013!

[Ram-Brand]

Nice! Happy new year.

[Lifteler]

Wow.That looks great

[Petz]

Whow; you are the first model lift builder who starts with spring double sheave batteries
Looks good and i´m sure it has a proper function too...

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

I'm glad to know that you like it. I'm not the first who has built double effect sheaves batteries with springs: I'm the third after two french model builder.
Springs come from pens and I'm not sure if they are the best ones (rust)... They are 4mm of diameter with a M3 bar inside them.

[Petz]

Unfortunately i have not the time to visit RMN often so i didn´ know that two of the guys there had built double sheave batteries. Unfortunately rust could be a theme cause all the pen´s springs that i know are not protected against it so so the best would be to put some grease on it.

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

Hi guys!

Well, I am finally here to show some interesting (I hope for you too) news. I don't want to write all the new parts and things, or it will become a very long post I just want to say that there are automatic gates at the valley station! Support towers will be changed soon (I hope) with new ones much more good.

Valley station:









Up station:







I will change my house next week. The 4CLF will stay on the new balcony, under the snow during winter!

[Petz]

Your new additions looking pretty nice, but i think we had to tell the guys that the gates are offering a fully function; that is the reason why you mounted the two black switches above the lower station chair leading bars.

Nb.: Your two grey - black steel tube chairs in the background doesn´t look to be really comfortable...

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

Hi to all!

Here are both stations finished!

Valley station:





Mountain station:





Presently I'm waiting to build the slope and the place where my model will "live". 3D final project of 2.5m of length:

[margau]

Good work! But i would Marke the Glasses in the Mountains Station stärker.

[Petz]

@margau; i think if Marco would use a stronger plastic plate it would be impossible to bow it in the necessary curving.
@Marco, looks great...

[Mr.MarcoPelle]

Yes, my platic plate is 1mm thick and it is very strong. I would like to build a new roof for the station, but I will do it next year otherwise I will lose time to be ready for winter season 2013/2014
Thanks for compliments

[margau]

Fucking autocorrector! I Mean darker and not bigger!
