Looks great, John!

Another one of my favourite kits out on the workbench.  Yippee!

Cheers, Mark.

Thanks for stopping by the thread - yes this is one of my favorite kits, too.  That's why I decided to pull it ahead in my build sequence.  I can also solve some design issues for my future planning.

A question for the forum - has anyone seen a build thread on Treadwell's? Please post a link if you know of one.

Thanks for trying - yeah I haven't found anything. I did have a few pictures in my archive of the mlvarley kitbash. If you look around in the thread I did on the F&SM you find that George used the walls from the main structure for a number of different buildings on his layout. I really love the stonework on this.

Thank you for sending the pictures of the diorama you found on the internet.  They will make a great reference for my build. Since I can't find another build thread for this wonderful kit I'm going to start a separate build thread for this project. I will be also posting some progress pictures here on this build thread.  I will post a link here when I get things started. As they say stay tuned. I need to take some pictures and get caught up with the build thread.

John,

Kathy Millatt, forum name kathy.millatt did the Treadwell build here on our current forum.

It's very odd that her name no longer appears in the member list. The thread no longer has any photos. Perhaps she has removed or deleted them.

Here is the link - http://modelersforum.com/kit-building/treadwell-and-ware/

Also, she has many Youtube videos out. Maybe you can contact her.

Thanks for the input - interesting, I did a search yesterday and this thread didn't pop up.  I tried again today after reading your post and it does. I don't know.   It wasn't my typing because the search from yesterday was still in the pop down list. I just clicked on it again. I have a link to Kathy's blog and u-tube posts I will check them out this evening. The missing pictures are a shame - not sure what happened.


Thanks again for your help,

John,

You are welcome. Don't know if she removed the photos, I do remember seeing them, or they got lost in the crash when I lost most of mine.

Thank you for the link - I have some reading to do.

Whoops...hadn't been on your thread for a few days so didn't see the link to Kathy's build. Onekama's been beautiful this week. Swimmable lake temps and hovering around 80, though warmer inland, I'm sure. Continuing to love this thread. Cheers!

I'm really intrigued by that t-track system you have. Went to Rockler's website and watched some of the videos. That's really cool! I'll have to scroll back through your thread to see if you have any pix of it in action that I may have overlooked. 👍🏻

Hi Dave


I'm glad you are enjoying your vacation in Onekema. I'm waiting for the weather to cool down a bit before I spend much time up there.


The t-track system is new - the pictures I posted were the first time I used it this week. So far I really like it. I will be gluing up a number of builds in the next few weeks so it will get a good test.  I will let you know what I think after more use.  It sure saved me a lot of time on the first job.

I just learned Rockler has a brick-and-mortar store about 30 minutes from home.    I'll make sure you get any commissions!
