KC's Workshop, Grumpy's Cafe - 2021 Build Challenge.

[Raymo]

Tom, I checked out this build thread earlier today. I like the changes you've done to the roof, can't wait to see it finished.

You're doing better than me.....I still haven't gotten back to the bench to complete Ezra Cooper's.

Dan,

Thank you for stopping by. I'm happy to be back on this one. I have others I want to start.

I'm very happy to see your recovery is going well.

Maybe I'll get this one finished before Cooper's garage.

I'm happy to be back on this one. I've been a little grumpy not getting back to my name sake. 

Today, it took a few minutes to locate my parts for finishing Brumpy's Cafe.

I installed corbels along the top portion.





I installed them on all sides except the rear.

I then added wall caps to the three walls with crobels.



If you ever do this, be sure to leave some for the overhang on the structure.



More in a few.

Nice job so far Tom...not that you won't continue to do so.

[ACL1504]

I had a little glue squeeze and used a tooth pick to clean the offending glob.



Once all three wall caps were glued in place and dry, I trimmed them and touched up the exposed ends.

I placed four weights on the bottom to ensure the top caps were flat and flush with the building.



More in a few. I already have the Diet Pepsi.

[ACL1504]

Done for today.

Curt,

Thank you for the nice compliment. Yes, I hope to continue in the same manner.

One roof detail I'm adding is the Inter-Action roof top A/C unit.



This is great little detail to add to your model where visitors can view the roof.

I added one to the Stella Scale Models, New Erie Cafe.
