Hi, I am looking for some HO scale I-beams and connectors, like the ones plastruct sells. Plastruct has a minimum order of 20 dollars and 8 dollars for shipping, so If no one here has anything I probably am gonna have to fork out the cash. I am also looking for some ladders to finish up a fuel tank I made (using ChrisC's method http://www.tycoforums.com/tyco/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6964), and maybe some pipes. Plastruct also sells those. Thanks in advance.

Jacob, my friend's Dad built some I-beams for a tractor trailer load using either some spare pieces of plastic or wood. Once painted and set on the truck they looked great, though if your looking to actually use them then that might be a different story. My one local hobby shop carries alot of the Plastruct stuff anyways (ladders too) so if there is one nearby you might be worth a look. And take pictures of the fuel tank when your done

For the I-beams, what size and how much are you looking for? I have some odd 1/8" pieces left over from a project, but maybe you want a different size.

Hmmm . . . Is there any way you could get some pictures? If not I understand. Thanks.
