Hi Kim:

Those are new the edges are fine. I know it looks like rust but it is not. I have 15 unopened boxes of 100 each. They are from our Closed Hobby Shop warehouse.

Thanks for the offer though.

Hi All:

outside walls of the lumber shed are finished. Stained twice with A&I light stain. Lots of weathering per the instructions. Hope they look OK.

Karl, The twice staining of A/I has brought out the differant shades of wood tones. Looks very realistic & natural

Hi Guys:

Been working on the lumber shed. It's quite a project and isn't finished yet. Have to put all the lumber in the bays and put the roof on.

Here's some progress shots.

Karl,
Outstanding workmanship! Alot of stripwood in this kit! Where is this Barnstead Lumber located on Georges layout or did he change it or not use it? Some of the old kits I have trouble finding.

George used the main building in the town of Bedford Falls. I have included a picture. I took a bunch of pictures in this area and will have more on the F&SM thread when I get to this area.
