I saw a post on the Stummis Modellbahnforum where someone put together a Sankei kit:
www.stummiforum.de/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=125509&sid=6cf8024e0822b4f3561fb5e15980049e
The price is really good, as the Marklin 8975 220mm arched bridge is around $22 - $28 on feebay.

I have put more than 6 of these kits to-gether, they are similar to laser cut wood as they are on heavy card stock and go together with white glue, but you need some metal weights to and magnets to hold things in place while the glue set up. So I have a machined block of steel, I use to get my corners square and I use ceramic type magnets as they resist the glue when holding parts together. Once the glue has set they are very sturdy and can be painted with non water based paints, might be able to use water based paints if you use a clear spray spray on surfaces to seal them before painting.

Thanks for the replies. I just ordered the bridge and it's on the way from Japan. So once I get it I'll try to post pics and feedback. It may be a bit before I get around to building it, as July is an extremely busy month. But I hope to have the layout going strong by August or September and I'll probably have it done by then.
