Build Challenge 2016 No. 2 FOS Dunbars Dairy

[jimmillho]

The walls are painted, windows and doors are installed and the signs have been mounted.  The windows are Gallery Glass and as soon as that dries the wall assembly will start.
The Deck, the flooring, the side frames, all the posts, bracing and the floor beams for the little extension have been stained with Floquil Oak Stain. The little pieces of stained wood on the floor of the deck are cut offs used to cover the post holes in the deck.  This makes sure the posts will be even on the bottom.  The Deck is now ready for the Building.  I also painted all the Milk Can with Floquil Stainless Steel as I could not find any Poly Scale Aluminum.

I have decided to use Bar Mills Shingles on the roof of both the main building and the small attached shed

more tomorrow if it rains tonight

Jim,

Your just building right along. You on a deadline or something. Never mind, I am so I'll keep quiet.

Great start by the way.

Jim,
Like the colors & look forward to the walls getting attached.
I agree Bar Mill is the way to go.  Will you go with Brown or Grey shingles

The walls are in the assembly fixture and should be done by tonight.  I am going to use Bar Mills Brown Shingles on this one.  I think they will match better.

I assembled two walls with glue and put them in the corner of the Assembly jig, then I repeated the same with the other two walls.  I also assembled the three walls of the attached shed in the Jig.  Now I just have to wait for the glue to dry

I Shingled the three roof sections using Bar Mills Shingles in Brown.  I covered the panels with 3M transfer adhesive and applied the shingle strips and then cut off the excess ends with some small shears.  This is the finished roofs in flat condition.

Jim,

The shingles look good. I understand shingles hurt like the devil.

Looks good!
You can add a grey/green colour wash, just looking to add some shades there (I did it on my Oakleaf build).
It's only an idea!!!
