At work I recently had an introduction to 3D printing. I thought it would be a good idea to print something useful for Wombat Creek Tramways. At thingiverse.com I came across a small shelter for a tram stop, so why not give it a go. Its architecture would fit in nicely with other shelters in Wombat Creek. Little did I know the model is a copy of a shelter from Fruens Bøge, Odense, not far from where I grow up in Denmark. The tramways closed before I was born, but the little shelter still exists at the tramway museum at Skjoldenæsholm.

The slightly out of focus photo shows the shelter before being painted. As seen it will take some of the future garden space at the terraced houses above the mine.
