I think that is one gorgeous sawmill, and I know Marty Jones would be proud of it!

Yes those are photos of Marty Jones' sawmill under the glass. If mine comes out half as good I will be happy. Roland Roland, I have seen your work, you are too modest. I am impressed with the size and quality of this build. It looks fantastic and will be a fine addition to your RR. Country: USA | Posts: 11058 lab-dad Fireman Posted - 04/10/2012 :  10:55:37 AM         Hi Roland! I am just now finding this thread! Wish I had seen it sooner. Boy does this bring back memories... :) Really like what you have done so far. If I can be of any assistance please let me know! -Marty Country: USA | Posts: 1543 brownbr Fireman Premium Member Posted - 04/10/2012 :  1:40:28 PM     Enjoying watching the layout develop with special attention to the sawmill. Very nice and thanks for all of the good ideas I have already gotten from your thread. Bryan Country: USA | Posts: 1471 Hopeless Fireman Posted - 04/10/2012 :  6:44:12 PM     Thank you Bryan. Most of my good ideas are borrowed (stolen) from someone else. Marty, I have been studying every photo I could find of your mill for months now. Nice to know I have somewhere to go to ask questions. Thanks. Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1800 elwoodblues Fireman Premium Member Posted - 04/11/2012 :  09:36:02 AM         Roland, That is going to be one impressive structure when built. Ron Newby General Manager Clearwater Valley Railway Co. http://cvry.ca Country: Canada | Posts: 6445 Hopeless Fireman Posted - 04/11/2012 :  7:05:05 PM     Thanks Ron. Finished the floor planking but little else. Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1800 Hopeless Fireman Posted - 04/13/2012 :  1:35:42 PM     Floor planking is in now except for the area around the saw. I think a lot of it goes under the planking so I will have to build it first. The floor will get a lot of dirt and sawdust as things are placed. I also am building a wall for the end. It will be the only wall and I wanted it to hold a workbench and other details. The windows will be scratchbuilt because I didn't want a frame. Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1800 elwoodblues Fireman Premium Member Posted - 04/13/2012 :  1:51:55 PM         Roland, the sawmill is looking better and better.

I am a lot happier with the colors after I went over everything with chalks. The stain is a nice color but a little shiny. Made it look a little like a piece of furniture. Geezer. Sorry but I can't work in a messy space. Everything has to be neat and clean. I understand there is a pill for this problem. Maybe next time I go to the doctor I'll ask him. Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1800 Mike Engler Fireman Posted - 04/13/2012 :  9:51:12 PM     Roland, a really great thread that I just read from the beginning. I'm just catching on that the "On30 line" way is to start a thread, and then just continue it forever, embracing several builds. Your approach to the sawmill is great, and I'm really enjoying the build. Great craftsmanship on this and the rest of your layout. Country: USA | Posts: 1292 danpickard Fireman Posted - 04/13/2012 :  10:01:32 PM       G'day Roland, Been quietly enjoying your sawmill progress. The wood tones have a wonderful warmth to them, nice depth of colouring and subtle ageing to the deck and wall. You have another very nice mill below the glass to be inspired by as well. Keep up the with the progress record, its a pleasure to watch.
