Build a Tiny Camera Car for your Model Railroad – Professional Tools for Modellers

I’ve always wanted to see what my model railroad would look like from the perspective of a tiny HO scale person walking around… And now I can 😄 In this tutorial I use a number of specialized tools to get the final result, however as long as you have some wheels and some materials you could make a basic version of this by hand if desired, you could even just adapt the camera to an existing piece of rolling stock on your layout and get some really cool shots! If you’re interested in building this exact model you’ll find the files for the camera mount for free on my website here: If you want to build the flatbed cars as well they are available for purchase through my store here: Or if you’re a $7 Patreon, you can get access to the store as part of the Patreon membership so you’ll not only be able to download these cars but also a selection of the other items in the store as well.
