Default People Mover close-ups

The details are pretty simple. I scan the art or logo I want to use and download it into Adobe Photoshop. In Photoshop I can retouch or modify to fit my needs. Once done I save the finished art as a PICT or JPEG. I transfer the completed art to a program called Adobe Pagemaker. In this program I adjust to the size I want and then print using "Super Cal" decal paper on an Epson ink jet printer.

For gates I use Gemini jetways and make the structure from Evergreen Plastics styrene sheeting. For the people mover I used two "S" shaped extrusions and glued them together. This gave me the recessed guideway I wanted. I braced it with an 1/8" styrene strip underneath and added legs on the terminal structure.

Hope that helps, Chris
