A versatile laser-cut micro-layout / diorama MDF baseboard, which is suitable for use as a fiddle yard add-on for our BB018 Baseboards, as a standalone photo plank or DCC Programming Track. A single baseboard has enough space to fit a single length of OO scale track up to 400mm in length. Additional baseboards can be joined together to create a longer run; a twin pack will give a run of 800mm.

Fixings and spacers to join multiple boards together, and blank end sections are also included to allow the board to be used as a standalone plinth for displaying individual locomotives, model cars & motorbikes etc.

Laser Cut from 4mm Formaldehyde free MDF.

Dimensions (One single board):

  • Overall size :L: 400mm x H: 44mm x D: 150mm
  • Model display area: L: 400mm x H: 44mm x D: 150mm
  • Compatible with our BB018 baseboards only or for standalone use

Please note: The baseboard in the photo has been assembled dry and is for illustration only. Joints will be tight when glued.

Easy assembly

I’ve purchased a number of the kits to build a new micro to demonstrate a reversing module. The boards have been delivered promptly and go together well although the last two were a tighter fit than the previous one so needed a little force to assemble. Great kits, do the job perfectly

This is an excellent product for various reasons, it allows a lot of flexibility for my layout construction. All elements of design, manufacturing, ordering and delivery are brilliant. Can’t thank you enough for the contribution you make to my modelling experience.

Twin Track Fiddle Yard well thought out Verified Purchase

I have brought two of these that will be permanently joined togther to form a two-track fiddle yard. The laser etched lines on the baseboard top give you a good alignment position for your OO track.

Excellent

This is an excellent product. It is perfectly cut and fits together easily. A little wood glue on all the joints and you have a great little baseboard in under ten minutes. I'm using mine as a programming/test track for DCC in 2mm scale. Perfect!

Solid baseboard.

Easy to construct and sturdy when completed. The lugs are a very tight fit and I had to tap gently with a hammer but they fit very snugly to provide a solid construction once the glue has dried. I linked three in a row to make 120cm baseboard which is going to be my programming track as I’m about to get into DCC. I decided to use the cross piece with the holes in it for one of the ends so that I can fit a mains lead through it.

Very easy to put together builds up in ten minutes all parts fit together perfectly far quicker than going out buying wood and having too cut it by hand

Very Nice

My purchase of this item was as an introduction to the Scale Model Scenery range of baseboards, I found it to be a well-engineered product that is both easy and quick to assemble. In addition I also like the way it has been designed with expansion in mind. There is an initial smell of wood and burning but this soon fades. I am now looking to buy several main base board sections and this baseboard will be included in the overall design as part of a multi-level railway with bridges.

Photo plank/fiddle yard baseboards

Needed to find a suitable baseboard structure for two 'lift out' sections across a doorway and window as my initial attempt proved to be prone to distortion in the timber used. Thus elected to give these units a go - 2 units bolted together to give an 800mm span. Very easy to assemble and gave nice light and rigid 400mm boards. I used the spacers and bolts supplied to make a 800mm x 100mm span and a 800 x 150 ditto. What I found was that the 2 x 100mm boards retained their flat profile better than the 150mm did, The 150mm boards tended to sag in the middle slightly so I will need to stiffen them up a bit with some longitudinal bracing across the joint. This is really to do with me using the units as drop into place sections between adjoining fixed baseboards rather than it being a problem with the baseboard units themselves. So, very satisfied so far and I hope that when the track goes into place I will remain so, and I would recommend these units for the advertised purpose. I have tried to adapt them slightly to form lift out sections which is maybe pushing my luck a little.
