Brett's Main Street has been on my upscale list for quite some time now. A great looking diorama as a whole and also as stand alone structures.

The current "Two Month" challenge is good motivation to get this next scratchbuild completed.

Here is a pic of Brett's original HO pilot model for those unfamiliar with it.



So let's get it done.....

Dallas is right, you'll certainly have extra time to start the sawmill next week...

Hey Dallas, Karl certainly had enough time to complete a wall while you were auto-quoting...

(And a second one during the time spent to type this uninteresting comment...)

Can't wait to see this one come together. Maybe this could be a prototype for a kit to come. Hmmm...

I wasn't even trying to quote myself! Just realized that I'd said "two moths" instead of "two months" and then the moths started buzzing around the [:-bulb] ... and in the time it took to clumsily almost-correct that ... two walls.

So the question remains: who's in the pool? It looks like he'll have an extra 6 or 7 weeks left when this is finished ... should be fully framed by the time I hit "post new reply"
