I wish I knew how to do the cad thing. This is my drawing :P.  I stained a bunch of strip wood. Gonna have a bowl of cereal so I have a box to cut up for the walls.

Looking for suggestions. do I go with just unpainted planks, or heavily weathered?

Personally, I like to see a bit of colour in there, so I vote for heavily weathered.  Maybe the blue from the Evinrude sign?

Cheers, Mark.

Thanks Mike I agree with peeling paint. This is Jason inspired after all :D It kind of depends on what brand of gas he sells.

that would be great if I knew how to do that

Hey Dick.....do it with a mechanical pencil, a scale ruler and some triangles on grid paper. The CAD programs, especially AutoCAD are a pain to learn and are terribly expensive. You can achieve the same results doing it by hand, the old fashioned way.....good luck.  ;D

Hi every one. Well as summer starts to wind down and it was raining I thought I'd do something.  First thing was major desk cleanup, and then a little modeling fun. 
My wife and I just got back from Massachusetts and before you aske we got there a day late for FSM open house.

I decided I would start the gas/bait dock with the store.
