How wide is the module there? Looks narrow but it's O scale and it may not be so small. About the sawmill, I agree that you have all the skills required to scratchbuild one, machinery included in my opinion.

Looking forward to watching your progress. Country: USA | Posts: 826 Hopeless Fireman Posted - 09/12/2010 :  7:33:44 PM     Thanks again for the positive comments. I might try to scratch the sawmill someday but for now I have much else to do. Frederic, At the end with the enginehouse the layout is only 16 inches wide. I was concerned about crowding when I added the blacksmith. It's tight but I've gotten used to it. Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1922 ELK RIVER RR Fireman Posted - 09/12/2010 :  9:25:12 PM     Hi Roland, I really like what you are doing with your layout the detail is really great.I wish I could get HO L/P with that much detail thay almost look real. I will be looking forward to many more posts as the year goes on. Have fun training Tom Country: USA | Posts: 3092 Frederic Testard Engineer Premium Member Posted - 09/13/2010 :  04:28:41 AM     Thanks for the answer, Roland. This shows that you can put a lot of structures in a tiny place, even in O scale. Always interesting to know these things are possible. Country: France | Posts: 17652 Hopeless Fireman Posted - 11/28/2011 :  2:42:19 PM     Well I guess it's time to drag this up from the basement and start on something. After a long layoff I'm starting on the sawmill. The first piece is a hit&miss gas engine I picked up at the convention made by Crow River. Since I wanted steam I had to change a few things, still more to go. I also have a boiler kit from Wiseman that arrived on Sat. I ordered it instead of SW because it is much smaller. More photos as progress continues. Roland Country: USA | Posts: 1922 CieloVistaRy Fireman Posted - 11/28/2011 :  3:31:27 PM     Roland, I am happy to see you back at work.
