From My Workbench


I have been conducting a series of basic Clinics for my NMRA division meetings here in Dallas. The subject this time is Introduction to Scratch-Building Structures. In it we have been building a small basic shack, it can be a news stand, a fireworks stand, fruit stand or whatever you want. My selection was a supply shack for logging. I hope that several of the clinic attendees will bring their versions in.







I am working on finishing up the base this week, it was a fun build, but it its a bit funny, it seems the smaller the build the harder the model. Until next time...
