Jerry, thank you.  The tools were part of the interior detail set from Inter-Action Hobbies that I purchased with the kit.

Howdy folks,

I'm calling the workbench "Done".  I could keep fine tuning, but I want to move on to other things.  I will dust the bench with a little sooty pigment, but that is about it. The bench is about 1.75" wide.



Next up is the cabinet.

Have fun,
mike

Howdy folks,

I had a good day upstairs working on the shed.  Here are a few photos of the current status.

The cabinet (needs some sanding  :o )


Three quarter view with removable roof 


Interior view of crank wall phone and bench


Interior view of workbench, stove, and cabinet glued in place.


Next up will be some dirtying of the floor, track for the speeder, weathering the roof, adding the doors, and placement on a base.  I plan to add a small coal bin for the potbelly stove, a stack of ties, trash barrel, etc.  Oh yes, the water tank, too, but that will be a whole new project from scratch.  I hope to build the Wiseman speeder at the same time.

Have fun,
mike

Mike, to say you had a good day upstairs is an understatement.
The bench and cabinet look amazing.
The entire interior is perfect.
Great job Mike!

Mike, Howdy,

Wow, what a great looking build. I love the weathered look of the cabinet with all the stuff on the shelves. Fantastic look overall.

Will there be a chimney for that stove?  That's the only thing that caught my eye as other than perfect...
