Hi there Bob

I let you into a secret what some scratch builders use, but you must promise not to tell anyone else on the Forum  ;D ;D if you have a Model Shop that deals with model railway stuff, there is a Company called Ratio/Wills they are based in sunny Buckfastleigh, Devon they do a set of 00 fittings - ladders and steps at reasonable prices - but shshshshsh dont tell anyone  O0  This may help you mate.

ps oh and I think James Lane of Blyth  does photo etched portholes etc. and he does ladders at 1:72 scale.  That will bring you a step forward mate    8)

JRH 636 gets you a 1/72 ladder fret. Also do oerlikons and the three patterns of RN stanchions in 17 thou brass , rigid and strong.  All frets £9 plus £1 postage within UK. [email protected][UK based]
