Can someone guide me in the right direction toward buying some of the miniature road construction barriers?......(the 6" wooden shaped blocks)

Thanks,

Rob

Its a German company ( now there is a surprise) but offers a fairly good range of stuff , I am planning on making my own when I get around to it.I am sure there must be a US supplier but I havent found em yet.

You might give Izzy a try. He had some that he was selling not too long ago.

As said before contact Izzy here on the board and I am sure he will help you out, last I knew he had several left. They are the same ones we used at Indy.

Try my friend Mike. He makes some cones and barrels for the 1/50th models.
I haven't heard from him lately to see if he's still at it.

Rob, it shouldn't be to hard to make some if you have access to a table saw and some 2x4's. Just sketch out the profile on the end and set your angle and push it through. I might be able to make a few if I had the dimensions.

Edit: Did a quick google search and found this site http://www.procastproducts.com/k-rail-concrete-barriers.html, if you click on the architectural specs button in the upper right corner under the tabs you can get dimensions for all the different types of barriers. I'll have to see if I have some scrap 2x4's and make some.
