Emery, that was straight from Brett's directions. If you can enlarge the photo the top of the corrugated metal has a lot of tiny holes from the PC board etchant.
Tom, I agree. After I add more details I will darken the floor between the front and doors and across to the workbench. Thanks for your comments and suggestions. Randy
I tend to spend more time sitting and staring in planning situations like this, and then the actual modelling just comes together in no time at all.
I like how it all looks.
The great parts from Brett are also a plus in scene creation.
The 3D Printed versions of the CHB logging blocks are a real game changer. Not only the re-release in O Scale, but especially the incredible HO Scale versions. Never had HO Scale in white metal.
I also did the final detailing of the inside of the shed. I may add a bottle or two but for the most part the inside is finished. Tom, I also added some black and gray chalk to the floor to denote high traffic areas.
I think I need to add a little more chalk in front of the sliding door. There are five of Brett's castings scattered around the shed. Thanks for looking and as usual all comments and suggestions are welcomed. Randy
Above is the first one glued together. The second picture is of three sat in place.
Now to finish two more and stain the wood. I will also need to come up with some new wood for the purlins. Thanks for looking and as usual any comments and suggestions are welcomed. Randy
I also cut some strips of the weathered cedar I had from last year. This cedar is about half as thick as the cedar I used on the handcar shed about .013 inches.
I then taped down four pieces of strip wood I am going to use as purlins and added three rows of shingles to see how they would look. I may need to destress them a little more but I think they will work. Thanks for looking and all comments and suggestions are welcomed
