Single Stall Engine House Part 1- updated

So the sun finally popped out to do a bit of priming. I also did some preliminary assembly before priming. As I looked through the instructions I saw several smaller brace pieces that had to be attached to the sides and ends, so I figured rather than fiddle with painting the little bits individually I’d glue them in place and prime the side and end panels, as you’ll see why in the following pics.

 

Next Project, Single Stall Engine House

This is the next Structure Project for my layout, A single stall engine house by American Model Builders. Looks to be a little more complicated than the last project.

I'll post progress as I go.

False Front Building Kit Part 1

I had previously posted on a kit project I was going to build, but was side tracked on my display shelf, so now back to the false front kit. To refresh you all the kit is a Bar Mills kit called "Witzingers Washboard Co.". I plan on calling it something else though.

After a couple of reads through the instructions, I think we're ready to dive in. The first section will be the building on the left, shown in the box cover pic here.

False Front Building Kit

The next buildings to do is a false front building kit from Bar Mills. It's their "Witzingers washboard Co." kit I plan on making into the United Fruit Company warehouse and offices. I'll try and remember to do photos as I go through the building stage. But first a read through the instructions and inventory the box.
