Tom,
Start looking on US sites I suggest - I've got some really nice etched HO stuff from Plano for making freightcar brake platforms and walkways. Somebody must do it in 1:48...

Tom,

In the US it seems to be known as either 'US Gypsum' or 'Transco' pattern, I guess dependent upon either the manufacturer or installation. It may help your search; e.g. 'Transco roofwalk' or 'Gypsum treadplate'...

Mmm, maybe closer than you think? And EXMET is the U.S. equivalent manufacturer of UK's EXPAMET. Both names seem to be universal as is JCB etc etc.

How about I agree to donate the cigar to charity, Bob? :D

You learn something every day :) Expamet was what I remembered used on the likes of the Cartic 4's and security screening...... No, I'd just have that cigar at your leisure - charities like money!

Thanks for the replies:thumbs:

I'm after etched versions for 4mm & 7mm scale MTH so the Halfords stuff is a bit on the big side.

Cheers
