Some other Scratch Built Buildings/ Photo
Posted by DONFLA on Saturday, September 6, 2008 10:06 AM

HO shelf layout  50"s era.  not finished yet. I find scratch building very relaxing and not hard to do.  Its also cheap.  and theres alot of satisfaction when done.  I don't use plans.  Just start building out of my head.  Seems to work for me. I am going for the old worn look!   Enjoy.

Don,

What you build is not my cup-o-tea but who are we to fault or belittle it. You build it how you see it and want it, in a frugal manner and  you derive  great pleasure from it,  that is ALL that really matters. 

More power to you.  Were others sit and arm-chair their time away, you build to your content.

Keep it up.
