How to make steck flooring?

[Gis]

Great work indeed Ali Baba, I will have time soon to start my own experiments. I'll report findings obviously.

Thanks guys. Maybe this week I'll do some sawing in the garden. It's pretty nice weather here. So no wooddust in my room upstairs.

@playmo1989: have you not heard of Ali Baba and the 40 thieves?

Mr Ali Baba I admire your patience to make this flooring which looks very nice by the way. When i was a kiddo and there was no ebay and very few steck pieces i had , I used to glue steck toasts to small pieces of brown cardboard to make such stands, they looked awful but I did have flooring all round my petite fortification and for my lit army , they were only bout 30 nuremberg guards , bless them all !!!!

It was the first custom I made. As I'm doing a fairy tale project I decided to call him Ali Baba.

Thanks Flatcat and Giorginetto,

I'm building a flying castle. The first floor shouldn't be made of wood. And do not have mucht flooring to begin with (although I now have 4 houses, 2 castles, 1 schuldturm, and 3 loose roundtowers).

I had some free time wednesday, so I did some sawing in the garden. I can now make an improved version this weekend. More pics coming up.

That is great Ali Baba  - you could go into business - I'm sure you'd get some customers here!

As far as I can see there wasn't a thread about this topic yet, so here it is.

Like many others I do not have enough flooring for my steck project. I was thinking about making my own.

I was thinking about using plywood with plastic bars stuck to the underside. These bars would have to be shaped at the ends to hook into the wall pieces.

Or does anybody know where you can buy ABS (*) panels or sheets?

(*) abs is the plastic playmobil is made of, right?

Je kan de stroken van lamellen  dubbel lijmen dan heb je strokenplaat van  2 mm dik  sterk  wit  en vlak ik gebruik het ook voor custumaisen van de autos enz.

Still didn't have much time to get on with this.

Noodwachter, what kind of lamellen do you mean?
