I needed a lumber load for my faltcar now that I have a sawmill:

I made the load out of 3/32 sqaure basswood that I bought from the local craft store. The centers are hollow with just the ends modeled to same on materials and weight. Each load is removable as the stakes are glued to the load, not the car.

I added the banding on top using black thread, twisting it with a small piece of lumber inserted in the center.
