Hi Jim:

Here's a few photos of mine. My big change was to put the outside entrance on the roof as a roof entry way.

Karl,

That was a real neat idea.  I wish I had thought of something like that.

I made a few little changes, but they may not even be noticed.

Thanks for the pictures.

Hi Jim:

You are quite welcome.

I glued 3 walls and the base together using my assembly fixture from Micro Mart and attached the sign to the forth wall.  I use a lot of clothes pins for clamps as you can see.  I cut the ends off the clothes pins to make a square end.  Not much beyond this has been accomplished.  I started a New Challenge Build of a FOS Kit to do while waiting for glue and paint to dry.  That will be a new build thread later.

Looking very good so far Jim

Rustys is pretty well finished now.  I painted the Tar Paper strips with Floquil Light Green and applied them to the roof board.  The Sign has been attached to the roof, but the roof is not glued to the building yet.  I painted the floor with floquil Concrete and I want to put some of the detail castings in the doorway and add some other details and weathering. I still have to paint the castings.

For the present effort I guess I can say that this Build is 99% complete.
