Hi All,
I've decided to throw all caution to the wind and return to building some craftsman kits.  The first one on my list is from JL Innovative.  This is model #641 Booker Perkins Produce.  Some of you may remember this as a Durago Press kit from a few years back.  I am not sure if it's the same kit with a new name or it is in fact and updated kit.  It measures 4.25" X 4.75" in HO scale so it's a fairly small kit that can fit in lots of places around the layout.  I will get started on the kit next week.

Kit Building / FOS Freekit #28 - O Scale Soda Shop

So I mentioned that I was doing some work in O scale lately.  Here's one of my O scale goodies, Doug's Soda Shop.  I plan to add some kids on bikes around the shop from woodland scenic so this should be a lot of fun.

Kit Building / Bar Mills H.J. Simpson Feed & Seed
September 30, 2018, 01:28:07 PM
Hi All,
After an extended time away from modeling and a recent blood clot in my left handed that threatened the loss of three of my fingers, I wasn't sure if I could still build anything.  So the decision was made to find a small basic kit to build and see what happens.  So I decided to build the H.J. Simpson Feed & Seed kit from Bar Mills.  As with most of my projects, there maybe a change or two to the design using my modelers license where I see fit.  So lets get started.

My projects usually start with the kit and my sketchbook.  I find that if I can visualize what I am going to build then I have a pretty good chance of hitting the mark.  So here is a photo of the kit I am going to build and the design sketches for the finished model.
