| Great work Mario, both on the Cannery and on the Plumbing Co. The 1/32 building is really huge. Looking forward to more progress. |

1/32! That's huge, Mario. But it looks like you have a great start on it. [:-thumbu]

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm a busy man. I have a railroad to run.

Hi Peter
1:32 is nice to work with.... ideal scale to get rid of lots of HO & O scale detail parts... Some G scale parts are also ideal...
I think like most structures we have seen in recent times, for every hour spent building the structure, there is another 10 hours preparing the detail parts, figures and internal finishes..... it's never ending, when time is not on your side... but it's a good relaxing excercise....
cheer's everyone and hope you are enjoying the historical events in the USA..

I haven't built the original HO kit, but I just wanted to say you've chosen a great prototype and I'm sure you'll be able to make a great rendition of it - at least if you find enough room to host all these 1/32 buildings.
I seem to remember that there was on your website another page featuring a marine diorama by Dave Revelia (not the ship being built). If I remember well, it was accessible through a link towards the end of the ship building diorama. I've tried to find it and couldn't locate it. Is my memory bad or have you removed this page? |

Big `M'
The original building is by Mainline and Siding which featured pre stained and weathered Board on Board. I haven't built the kit but know of it from Drooling over the adds in the gazette late 80's vintage. I think they had all Scale Structures detail parts.
Way to go with the 1:32
