I've go some more photos to show and I need to try and wrap up this build thread.
First, there are some areas where I've diverged from the kit instructions. For example, I just can't get enthused about making all those little tiny rafter tails and gluing them under the eaves where they can hardly be seen anyway. I did put some trim boards under the eave at the back side of the roof.
Also Campbell prints a sign that says Blacksmith which can be put on the front wall of the building. When placed on my layout, this side will NOT face front, so I may build a sign that will hang out from the building. Family lore has it that one of my wife's relatives actually had a blacksmith shop in Southern Ohio, and so some research is needed to see what might be a prototype for this project?
