Fabrication

HO scale fabrication: 3D printing, CNC, and precision-made parts — turning CAD designs into repeatable, dimensionally accurate components for your layout.

Fabrication is the bridge from design to matter: CAD, 3D printing, CNC, and part production that supports reliable, repeatable builds. RailForge designs components with real tolerances and print settings in mind, so a part comes off the machine ready to fit and function — custom rolling stock details, structures, jigs, and gauges. When something doesn't exist off the shelf, this is where it gets made.

I Turned AI Characters into Tiny 3D Printed Figures

In this video, we explore how to create custom figures using artificial intelligence and a resin 3d printer. Discover a workflow for generating unique miniatures without traditional modeling skills, leveraging the power of AI to design and produce a perfect resin print every time. This method allows for unparalleled customization and avoids limitations of off-the-shelf options.
