Reply to "O Gauge Building wish list"

This is a fantastic thread! Thank you!

I understand the basic concept of scratch building and I can build the basic shapes using basswood etc..

However..How tall should a building be so that it is scale height and length?

Where I get hung up is on the detailing part and finding where to get the different types of sidings/windows/lights/railings/steps

All of that is what makes it a great model but where can one find these various supplies?

My next project is a trackside brick warehouse with a RR loading dock and I understand how to build the structure but where do I go from there?

here is an example of what I want to create:



Thanks!
