N Scale Architect N Scale Brick Sheets - What Size Are They?

I'm interested in getting some N Scale Architect  N scale brick sheets, but I don't see any indication what size the sheets are on their website. For $19.95 each, I imagine they're relatively big.


Hmm... if bananas were
$19.95 each, they'd
have to be ENORMOUS...

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.

I can't remember their actual size and mine are packed up in storage, but I do remember they're vacuum formed (or made in a waffle iron) so there's about a 1/2 inch around the actual brick formed surface that is unusable.  Just FYI.
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

as is listed on the website of an online MR retailer

N Scale Architect N/Z 50031 Modern Brick (Two 11" x 14" White Styrene Sheets)

I suppose you would need to know what model # to be sure
this one being #50031

fwiw...I hope this helps

I have the welded steel plate HO/N pack and like it, but only for larger tanks. I haven't measured, but the plates are on the high end of large for N scale. Easy to use product though.

Kiz,

I also have some Modern Brick styrene sheets from the N Scale Architect.  The usable brick portion of the sheet measures in at approximately 9-1/2" x 13-1/2".  As pointed out above, you get two sheets per pack, so it should go a long way.  I used it on a portion of my A&R enginehouse and have started applying the brick veneer to my SAL station, and I still haven't used up the first sheet.

For scaling purposes, here is some of it applied to an N scale structure that is under constructioh:


Hope this helps,
