Title: Moonshiner's Shed by Interaction Hobbies
Post by: Rail and Tie on January 07, 2025, 06:30:15 PM
Thought I would share this video of building our HO scale Moonshiners Shed from a while back.  A few tips and hints along the way. Hope you enjoy it.

Darryl,

Great video and neat little kit. I need to find a spot for it and I also learned a few tips/tricks along the way.

If I don't build it, I'll get ReadingBob on the job.  8)

Philip,

I met the real Popcorn Sutton in Maggie Valley, NC. My parents had a cabin, actually a lodge, and dad got his hooch from Popcorn. One morning I drove dad into the back woods of the Smokey Mtns. and he got three bottles from Popcorn. I tasted it and it was like pure alcohol. Nasty stuff. My dad kept it for guests.

Popcorn was one scary guy.

Thanks Team!  It is a fun little kit with lots of details included.

My wife is actually the moonshiner in the family. She distills our own spirits on site. Known as the moonshiner of Turtle Valley!  A still bought on Amazon is a bit of a let down vs Copper and kegs though. It does pump out 160 proof spirits though!

Small world Tom! I figured most folk would shrug their shoulders, not knowing Popcorn.

Darryl, Attention to detail makes for a nice kit! Any future plans to venture into other scales?
