Well, my late brother the carpenter said, "You can't be too rich, too strong, or have too many clamps!"

Howdy Philip,

The gussets look fantastic. Thanks for the crescent wrench tip.  I like it.

Have fun,

Philip as the others have mentioned the gussets really add another layer of detail. Using the wrench as a clap is a new one on me and is brilliant!! Clamps = future Christmas presents; just saying.

Sorry a wrench has been thrown into your modeling.  ;D  8)
But that's a very creative use of that wrench.

A couple shots of the 3d sub-frame details on the roof topper coupla. I have scratch built these before and used an HO scale stair stringer for spacing the slats. A slow process to scratch build.
