Correct building methods - links

[Mark Dalrymple]

Hi all.  Please post any links to ANY area of prototype building that may be helpful in our endeavors to make our models as realistic as possible by following prototype practices.  Please note I found it necessary to start a new thread as the one Tom started immediately when off on a nail hole tangent.  That is NOT its purpose.  My intention is to create a thread where anyone can find prototypical information quickly and easily.

Here's a link to information on all sorts of correct building practices.
