Andre,

Just a suggestion, but please put "S scale" in the thread title.  I came to this from the Recent Posts list and scratched my head trying to figure out why you were using .084" gauge when I thought O Gauge was either 1.25" or, for pure prototype people, 1.18".  I finally figured it out that you were asking this question in the S Gauge forum (silly me).  And, sorry, but I don't know the answer.

Others may have better information but I believe that for S gauge tracks the distance between the rails (gauge) is 7/8 inch or 0.875".

Most rail is 1/8 inch wide.

Your drawing appears to show a center-to-center rail measurement.

If so, you would need to add 0.125 (rail width) to 0.875 (gauge) to get a measurement of 1.0 inches center -to -center on S gauge track.

i will make the changes and post it.

thanks again

Andre.

Looks really nice Andre! I especially like the windows and skylight. Will the roof have an exhaust stack?

No,

I work in a warehouse, long time ago, where was possible to open the skylight for ventilation. I though in the same concept here. but add a pair of smokestack (square) is not so difficult. I am trying to keep the price low as possible.
