Starbucks Coffee Shop - Bird's Eye View alternative!

Ingeniero No1Ingeniero No1OGR Forum Member

The Menards Starbucks Coffee Shop is an excellent addition to any layout, and I just had to make room in mine to fit it in. I had to relocate a smaller building that once occupied this space, but that was OK.

The Coffee Shop has a nicely detailed interior, and also a clear roof, so the details can be seen and appreciated. Unfortunately, the space (the only possibility) I vacated for the Coffee Shop is not close to the edge of the layout, so the view of the interior details from the top was in jeopardy. Well, I had a solution, and I think it works fine.

Great ingenuity by Ingeniero!  Also fabulous execution.  What did you use as the mirror?

Coach Joe,

I bought the mirror from eBay: CLEAR MIRROR ACRYLIC PLEXIGLASS 1/8" X 4" X10" PLASTIC SHEET at $5.80 shipped (4 days).

Since they were inexpensive, I ordered two pieces. The Coffee Shop required just one half of a piece, or 4" x 5". Now I have extras for something else 

Alex

PS. Thanks, guys!

you forgot the line of a dozen or so morons anxiously waiting to hand over $5+ for a cup of truly overrated coffee.

Overlandflyer, hey I resemble that remark!  This moron sticks with the overrated cups of drip coffee for about $2.50 though, the rest I put in my train fund.

yeah, but isn't is a refreshing change to hear some non-politically motivated fake news?

dunkin' donuts still rules!
