The Ken Burns Coal and FireWood series was well received; so I will try another simple building.I am working on the community of Between, which is really just a small silver mine community,  The existing buildings do not complete the community, so I have to build two (or more) new buildings.  There will be an added freight station/dock/company store and at least one new company house.  There are four company houses saved from the prior layout (torn down 15 years ago).  I think that I can get by with just one more house; however, I may need two.This is the area as it looks now:[IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n123/Alan_B/022807-014_r.jpg[/IMG]I will build the new house just a little bit larger than the existing ones and paint it a different color.  This will be the mine foreman's house (he does rate a larger house than that of the "regular" workers).I tend to stock a small selection of windows, doors and other building materials.  I am just picking parts from that stock. no real what-do-I-use decisions here.Here are the front, back, and two sides cut from board and batten stock.[IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n123/Alan_B/022807-017_r.jpg[/IMG]Should I continue the series; or was the Ken Burns Coal and FireWood series enough ?
