Hey All! <br /> <br />Thought I'd share a picture of some structures I'm building for my new rr. I can't work on the ROW due to the weather, so I thought I'd keep myself busy with these instead. Each is constructed from 3/8" cypress resawn and planed from 4/4 stock. I milled the board and batten siding for the two painted buildings as well as the plank style used for the larger structure on the left. It will have a loading dock trackside as it is a small warehouse (of some sort). <br /> <br />[IMG]http://img452.imageshack.us/img452/1402/00002012dm.jpg[/IMG][/URL] <br /> <br />The doors and windows are plastic from Colorado Model Structures. They average about fifty to seventy cents each roughly, which is a pretty good deal. I wi***hey were the inset variety, but making the window sashes, etc.. goes pretty quick after you've done four or five. [:p] The doors come 1:24 scale, so I cut them down to 1:29. This is a pretty easy task and more of an annoyance than anything else. Maybe someday we'll be able to buy them that way over the counter. <br /> <br />I still have the roofs to complete and windows to cut and install. I'll post a few pictures when I'm done. <br /> <br />Thanks for peekin'. [;)]
