Almost finished the Citrus Shed. It seems to me that Showcase Miniatures used
the same thin material for this kit as they use for their HO kits. The
material is so thin, and the glue points so few, that I'm constantly
reassembling the structure with additional bracing. The other contributors are
the open construction and odd angles of the parts makes the proper clamping of
glue joints almost impossible. Even so, it has gone together extremely well.
The design and laser cutting has produced parts so accurate that no fitting is
necessary. Pictures coming, if it stays together this time :o)
Rebuilt the sub-standard area of my benchwork. A little more work and I can
begin laying track on the lower level. Then I have to tackle the lift-out
section across the doorway. I haven't any first hand experience with these
things, and haven't decided on the method. I could go with a drop-down or
lift-out. The opening is only slightly over 24", and it would only have to be
used to get into the room. No need to use it once your in there (except
bathroom breaks). I don't think more than 3 people could be in there at any
one time. 4 people would have to be VERY good freinds or just looking things
over, but not operating. There isn't enough room for any more.
The end points that need to be connected are quite stable. Any good advice?
