O Motrak Models Laser-Cut Random Width & Length Shake Shingles 44008 - O Scale Detail Accessory

The O Motrak Models Laser-Cut Random Width & Length Shake Shingles 44008 are premium building materials designed for O Scale (1:48) model railroading and architectural models. These laser-cut sheets simulate traditional, hand-split, random-width and random-length shake shingles commonly found on historical or rural structures, providing an exceptionally authentic roofing solution for your craftsman structure kits and scratch-built models.

Product Details

These random-width and random-length shake shingles offer the ultimate realism for model builders seeking to replicate the authentic appearance of traditional wooden shake roofing. The laser-cutting process ensures precise, consistent detail while maintaining the natural variation in both width and length that characterizes hand-split shakes, creating an even more realistic and irregular appearance than standard shingles.
