New release for September from 3DK Building Kits
www.3dk.ca

OO-9 Terraced Shop Kit $9.80 (£5.63)
I have just released the second of my highly detailed British OO Gauge 1:76 downloadable terraced shops. The kit is as detailed inside as it is on the outside and comes with detailed photographic instructions


The kit is sent as a PDF via email so it can be sent quickly anywhere in the world. You just simply print the kit out on your home printer, stick down on card, and build. It's that easy.

The kit is ideal for illumination and detailing the inside to create a wonderful night scene.

Included with the kit are period piece adverts and posters to enable you to super detail the outside of the building. There are also numerous business signs for the front of the shop.

For more details, please visit my web site at www.3dk.ca or email me at o.3dk@live.ca.

New Terraced House Shops

Here are some images of my latest 3dk kit which is as detailed on the inside as it is on the outside. The kit is British OO Gauge 1:76 and is based on standard terraced houses that could be found being used all over the British Isles.

The kit is emailed to you as a PDF and only cost $9.80 or £5.30 and once purchased the kit can be printed out many times creating whole streets from one PDF.






The range of shops will grow over time enabling you to create a whole rangevof buildings.


The kit comes with adverts and posters to enable you to super detail the building.

Only the most basic of tools are required to assemble and if you make a mistake then simply just print the part out from the original PDF

To view the kit and many other OO & O Gauge and HO & O Scale kits then go to www.3dk.ca

Great British Model Railway 2014 Show

Here is a small video of my 3dk.ca OO Gauge model railway’s first public outing at the “Great British Model Railway 2014 Show” in Brampton last month. Quite a bit of the scenic detailing was complete but all the buildings are at this point just cardboard mock ups.
. It’s a good idea to makes mock ups of the intended building structures as you will add bit and change bits before settling on a final design. Better to do it with cheap cardboard than expensive kits.


The layout depicts a North of Scotland Royal Navy base around the sixties when the railway link to the base was almost at the end of its working life due to major road improvements to the Northern highlands. There is still lots to do on the layout before completion but you can see the very first stages of construction on my blog page at 3dkblog.blogspot.ca and on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/pages/3DK/333331670090737

A Pendon treat

Some more amazing images from Pendon museum. I visited the museum before I moved to Canada from Scotland in 2009 and would dearly love to see it once again. I must have taken hundreds of photos but the photos shown here are from the Facebook page of Gary Hinson. Please enjoy

New 3DK designs

Hi there blog buddies,


Quite a few customers have asked me what I am working on at the moment and what is new so I am starting to give updates on the progress of new designs so you get a better idea of completion dates and when the kits will be live on the website and on eBay. 
I am at the moment designing a range of small offices with differing external finishes in North American HO Scale and British OO Gauge. 
The kits have passed the design stage and are moving onto the instruction stage which requires me to build and photograph them which is the fun bit. 

After some tweaking and re-designing and sometimes more re-designing the kits is ready for testing which is done by a mate of mine who then gives me the kit back with a comprehensive list of suggestions so it’s re-design again before finial completion.  

If you have any suggestions or if there are structures you would like to see me produce then please feel free to drop me a line at
