   Question to Swammi Mate where are the handrails you can’t just have “staunchions” sticking up in the air they really are dangerous and need a rail along the top.

To be fair to Swami, that was more my fault than his. I was rushing his renders and didn’t have time to learn Lsynth to add the flextube.

Thanks too for the compliments but my version took a lot longer than 24hrs to design and was then refined more with your help. A 24hr version would have been a lot crapper.

I do prefer six-wide and, as you say, no amount of scale argument can really shift my opinion. I just think it looks more right and I enjoy designing to the constraints of the scale but that’s individual preference and opinion. That said I did convert the 24hr Indian EMU which formed the other side of this challenge to seven-wide as it didn’t look right at six-wide.
