Merchant's Row II - A Magnuson Kit.

[ACL1504]

I used the plastic putty to fill a few gaps. 

When the putty was dry, I sprayed the turret with Ace Hardware Auto Primer Gray.

[ACL1504]

The bottom of the steeple had small ridges of flash on the edges. I used a small piece of extra fine sandpaper and moved the steeple in circles to remove the flash.

[ACL1504]

Now the turret and steeple are both level.





Next I'll work on getting the walls together.

Done for today on this one.

You did your level best Tom!

[Bernd]

Ah, but is the work bench level is the question?

Tom, Great work on the turret, with the primer on it doesn't look like you used any putty at all.

I was wondering the same thing that Bernd is wondering about.

[Rick]

Tom, I knew things would be on the level soon.

Wow Tom,  very frustrating trying to get that turret right.  Looks like you got there in the end.
You must have a lot of patience.  I really like your little level.  I just usually eye ball things.

I've built DPM's corner turret building, and whilst fiddly, was no where near the problems you've had.
I also did a kitbash combing 3 of the DPM Reeds books as one building, so had 6 sets of bay windows.  That took some work.

[PRR Modeler]

Tom your patience and excellent modeling skills paid off again.

Howdy Tom, the turret and steeple look terrific.  Nice work straightening the turret.  Have fun, mike

[Jerry]

Tom that is just wonderful work.  Your patience paid off once again.

Bob,

Thanks for the boost on this. However, I thought so as well, but I'm thinking now it may look better on the third level in Summit.
