Hey guys the cold winter is here so time to start getting to the shelf kits, here is the start of the Sierra West Boiler House kit I intend to incorporate into my mill area for power. This kit does not come with laser cut framing so it's a little more time consuming.Requires quite a bit of cutting small parts. Here are the results so far, Jerry

Sorry I can't get the great close ups with my cheap 2mpx camera but it gives the idea. |

Many interesting finds in this lounge. Tom, be careful with the freezing temps. It's gonna become colder here too, but in the surroundings of 0°C. Ron, I had missed the opportunity to congratulate you on the pics of the buildings of your town in the older lounge (when I tried to push the door, everything was locked...). Jerry, excellent start on SW Boiler House kit. Even without the macro lens, it's easy to see your good craftsmanship on these walls. I still feel a bit lazy here after the involvement required to complete 'Sleepy time down south' on schedule, but I think modelling juice should start to boil again soon. Have a great night or evening or afternoon or morning, all.

I agree. I'm glad we're on page two already and I don't have to see face again.[:-yuck][:-spin]
Jerry, nice start on the Boiler House. You've been able to get some nice colors on those boars. [:-thumbu]

Sorry about that Frederic. I can unlock it for you if you'd like. |

| Thanks guys, I noticed while looking at the great models being built of the SW Rigging Shed that the wood work was excellent but the laser cut frame to me really stood out. I guess these are models where the interior doesn't show so it doesn't matter but it sure looks out of place next to b by b. Jerry |

Wow, number 6 all ready,
Back from NY after a day of fighting with United Airlines. Got back home at 5am, not fun. Don't think I am going to make my goal of a completed loop by the end of the year, but will take any progress that happens along. wished I moved as fast as this forum does.
