Hi All:

Started Alvin's hat co. Here's a photo of the model Jack Ellis built when he and I were building structures for Cundy Village. The second photo is my finished back wall.

Neat looking structure.....I like the look of the wavy siding. I'll be watching Karl.  8)


I worked up an estimate for a summer YMCA camp for a client in NC a couple of months ago and it had that siding on all the buildings. It will look great when it's completed.

Karl - I'm getting ready to start Alvin's and I have a question for you.  It calls for battens on walls 2-5 but when I look the battens (part 50) I don't see how it's possible to have enough material.  Am I not understanding something here.  Thanks for your advice.  Jim

Hi Jim:

You should have a whole extra sheet of battons. If not give Artie a call I'm sure he will send them along.

Nice, Karl. I think this is my favorite structure from Cundy Village kit. Do you own entire kit or just separate small kits?
