Bruce,

Looks great! Neat, clean construction, nice color choices, looks like you were never away from the modeling bench. I like the index card idea. I may steal, er, borrow it.

Given how detailed this thread is and the constant references to diet Pepsi I am wondering... Are you really Bruce or is this Tom in disguise???

Cousin Brucie and I are the first and only members in good standing of the Diet Pepsi Brotherhood.

Borrowing is always a good thing.

And no, I am not Tom and he is not me. But we don seem to think alike on lots of things. We've been friends since we were both posting threads on that other forum that we no longer talk about.

Thank you!

One of the things that surprised me was how easy it was to do once I got started again. I just seem to be falling into the old groove. Now if only I can meet my deadline of October 27,2018. That's when our local NMRA is having it's next model building meet.

BTW, here are some pictures of that other build I did of this structure. I added a loading dock for hay bales to this project.

Just you wait. Tom and I will sign you up with the Brotherhood. Care to guess what's involved for initiation?

Brucie,
Wonder why my brother-in-law Bruce never got tagged with that moniker? His Size, maybe.?
Regardless, it's great to see you back. Glad there was no loss of limbs/digits and even more glad there was no loss of your sense of humor nor writing flair.
Please keep up the great work and the pictures, as we like pictures.

So I am back after a small Diet Pepsi break

rpdylan · October 14, 2018, 11:39:27 AM

Great modeling! I have never had a Diet Pepsi- seriously!

Bruce Oberleitner · October 14, 2018, 11:41:33 AM

So at this point I put the card stock roof on the building and she looked like this.

I decided to let the glue dry on the main structure and I turned my attention to the back yard fence. This is a wonderful product also made by Bar-Mills called "Insta Fence" which is available on their website. The kit includes four section of fencing, fence post, signs and instructions as shown in the photos.
