Bob,

As usual, wonderful step by step tutorial with a superb result.  There's a lot to see in a small structure, including the lighting.  Wonderful modeling!

Bob,

Great build and STS. I believe there is a place for this on the A&S RR. It will fit next to the Deignan Car Wash.

Hello Bob, you've done your usual fine job with this small FOS build. I'm looking forward to seeing it on Tom's layout. Any idea how many of your builds are on that layout ?

Jeff

Thanks, Jeff!  I like a lot of these little designs Doug comes up with.  They're interesting and fun to build.

Quote from: deemery on December 05, 2024, 04:19:29 PMI have to admit I'd be a little suspicious of a -Florida- pancake house offering "our own maple syrup." ;D  But it's a great build, and the weathering is -consistent-.

Thanks, Dave!  What?  You don't trust our special Florida maple syrup?  :P

Thanks, Jan!  Doug gets all the credit for the signs.  That's what caught my eye about the kit when I saw it down at Tom's place.  ;)

Yes, Greg, this one didn't take quite as long as that quarter or a decade build, that I recently finished!  ;D

Thank you, Jeff!  Too be perfectly honest I have no idea how many structures I've built that are now lurking around Tom's train shed.  ::)

Bob,

To be honest, there are 21 structures lurking on the A&S RR. But, dang, who's counting?  8)

Bob a wonderful build!  Weathering is perfect just the right amount.

Good tutorial on the lighting!

Thanks, Jerry!  I really like small structures like this one.  Loads of character in a condensed space.  Given my layout space will be rather limited I can squeeze several of this type of kit in the same amount of space one FSM, SRMW, or similar structure might occupy.  Not that those aren't great kits.  They just require a lot of real estate.
