This is complex build - lots of pieces but it goes together real nice. It is a great opportunity to use all the clamps, shims, and squares that you bought.

I have about 6 more small castings to add at the base of the structure and it will be ready for the primer in the paint booth. The red brick for this building will match the red brick trim of Threadwell's.  I'm using the same light grey paint for the windows and the clapboard portion of the building will match the gray of Threadwell's.

Thanks for following along. Everything is fitting together very nicely, so far. A few shims here and a little sanding there - I'm really happy with my duplicate resin castings.

I added the wood gate and the pit for the mechanics to the spill way.

Also, finished assembling and dry fitting the castings for Delabarre.  Next, they casting assemblies will be heading for the paint booth for primer.
