Looking good Uncle Tommy.  Should be a great addition to the railroad.

Drink a Diet Pepsi on me!

Cousin Brucie,

Thank you my friend, I'm having a Diet Pepsi as I type this. :o

Looks really great, the really cool effect with the windows.

Jim


Jim,

Thank you, I used Canopy glue for the window glass. It does dry the way it looks, like old glass.

I added the fifth wall section. It was critical for this wall to be level. The pencil mark showing the gable angle matches the outer gabled wall section.

Yes, it is level.



The rear sub assembly was glued in place when the fifth wall section was dry.



More in a few.

The small office section (on the right) was then glued in place.



The angled office wall section won't be glued in place until I make a roof card for it. The angled wall section is just placed up against the main structure.

Tom,

When I mentioned the windows in mt previous post, I was meaning the way you did the coloring.

I've used Canopy Glue for the older glass look, before. For the FOS Pressman Radio kit I did, I tried Elmer's Clear Glue, and got the same effect.

Cheaper, if one is at the point that one needs a new bottle of CG, and a lot more readily available, locally.

As for your build, I'm really liking the structure. May have to find a side street or back alley location for a exterminator business.

Jim
