And now we get into the meat of this bridge. There are 6 truss spans, each about 32” in length. They are 8” tall and spaced about 3” apart. The first picture shows one of the brass truss sides along with the soldering iron used to build them. It is a 250 watt iron that I used when I built leaded glass windows many years ago. The other pictures show the laminated plastic and brass sides. There are laser cut spacers between. More spacers are on the way and each vertical post will have one. The jig holding the sides holds them vertical and the correct distance apart. It is constructed from .080 styrene. The paint can is a vital part of the jig as it provides the weight to keep it in place. Add CA, Goo and plastic solvent and you get trusses.
