Paper Modelmaking - Building DigCom Design Containers and 9 stacks!

How to make and reinforce DigCom Designs paper shipping container models. From cutting and scoring to final assembly. This includes reinforcing and adding weight to the large 9 stack models they have, featuring 9 53 foot shipping containers in HO scale. What an awesome way to populate your model container yard!

Good video. I’m just glad you’re not a surgeon.

Essential tremors they are called. Very vexing. I have started lifting weights which might help. My doctor also recommends consuming alcohol to reduce them - not kidding! Ha. Otherwise there is medication that has ED as a side effect! I'm not going there yet! Thanks for the view and comment.

Hi you are making hard work of making the containers,You do not need foam core to make them more stable. I graphic design these containers, The glue tabs are wrong, I have over 700 files in all gauges, from 20' to 53',I have buyers all over the world, I sell them flat-packed or full assembled. each container has supports already fitted if flat-packed or assembled.

That was interesting. So digicom doesn’t do 40 and 20 foot block stacks? That’s odd, those are really the ones you see more of especially at a port.

Yes it IS odd. But I think it will be fairly easy to create my own. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Hi on my containers you do not see white card edges either.

Without having to color the edge of the paper? Nice.

Hey, Bob. Thanks for posting this video- very helpful. I've switched to N scale and I'm trying to build several containers. Do you think something like Aleene's clear gel tacky glue would work well on these?

I've never used Aleene's but my recollection is it stays wet, right? Not sure I'd trust something like that but it's worth a try when you can print containers for practically nothing! Thanks for watching and commenting!
