Have fun,

The tin making party is almost done and then into the etchant solution.  130 pieces.

I made this brayer up to speed up the process. It takes some steady pressure to make the raised seams. 3 or 4 passes per sheet. Basically the mini version of Labdads process minus the pronounced V.

Philip just getting some time to catch up.

Great job on those windows for sure.

Metal roofing is perfect.

Great job on the windows and roofing.

That 'seam roller' was 3d-printed?  Great results!

Philip, that's a neat tool you made to make the roof.
Metal looks perfect.
Careful using the etchant.

[Larry C]

Great little tool you made!! The metal looks great.

[Philip]

Thanks to all!

Yes 3d printed Dave. The brayer was really old, originally had a wooden roller for laminates perhaps.

The chemical douche will be outside Rick. Takes forever one piece at a time..

Slow

A wallpaper seam roller might work for this, how wide is your breyer template?

Philip,

The windows look like a master carpenter's work, well done. Love the roofing panels as well.

I think I have one of those stored somewhere. The 3d item is about 3/4" length.
