Kitbashed MTH "grainery", Mill

that looks great!!

Hi Coloradohiraile,

 

That looks great, I like the shed that you added on. Well done.

 

Here's one that I did.

 

Thanks for sharing, Alex

 

Alex....thanks for posting yours.  When I first saw that structure in a shop...it screamed "Water Mill!" at me, so I was on the lookout for a used one.  Obviously it screamed at you, too......good job!

Very nice! I've only a question towards Alex about that Water Wheel? How was it built? Also Colorado, did you overlay stone walls onto your upper story building walls?

 

I've been looking to add one of these to my feed mill, grain elevator complex.

Lee 145:  I overlaid ONE wall of the lower section (two stories) on the water wheel side, with "Featherlite" foam stone, this to eliminate many of what I considered way too many windows.  I cut the foam stone half as thin down the middle before applying it. I finished it with a darker gray, and washed that over with white acrylic, which resulted in an unusual "stone" appearance, as it pooled on the individual stones rather than in the mortar lines, on the original plastic walls.

Always like that building. But it looks really nice what you guys have done with it. Great job

I Lee,

 

     The material I used to build the water wheel. 

 

   1/8 inch masonite

   1/4 inch poplar square stock

 

    I will post photo's of the construction of the water wheel later today. Better if you see how I did it, rather than me trying to explain it

 

Thanks, Alex
