Tom, lights look great.
And good job getting the tower to fit properly.

Rick,

Thank you also my friend.

My rendition would be a pile of lumber!

Nice work!

Philip,

Well, it was a possibility for sure. I managed to figured it all out.

Tom, thanks Very Much for the description of how you fit the tower.  The final fit looks really good, and some trim will make any gaps disappear.

Dave,

You are very welcome. Actually, it was a great question and a part I should have covered in the narrative.

After gluing the bottom and middle roof panels together, I made a test fit of the top panel with the other two in place on the roof.



You can see it is warped also. It is thin like the bottom panel.

[ACL1504]

I glued the top to the other two panels and placed weights on them until dry.



I spray painted the side on the three panels with Tamiya paint in the same color as the trim and windows.



The roof was removed, glue added and then replaced and held on the roof with weights until dry. I'll remove the weights tomorrow.



Done for today.

That's a strong building.

Nice fix!! I could almost park a car on top of that building and it would hold.

Tom,

Will the upstairs rooms be apartments?  When can I move in?
This is a prominent structure. Looking good!

Tom,

Your structure builds always amaze me. The SBS's are great. I always learn something by looking at the pictures. I need to stop in more often too.

Great looking building.

Tom,

The building is starting to look impressive, a signature building for sure.  Also as Curt stated, it's a strong building with all the weight it's supporting.

[Jerry]

That;s an impressive building and a outstandinng job building it.  Great tutorial Tom.
