Good Morning Everyone,
I will start with a model I constructed in the past. Lets see what you are working on.

Elliot was lucky to have that power station on the Munoz Lines.
Ben the Chrysler Building looks great, all that's missing are the eagles.
Ben,
That is awesome.
Coach,
Elliot said he sold it to a club in Ohio. He has been sling things off now.
I never did grasp what Elliot was trying to do when he dismantled the Munoz Lines and started the new layout. I remember he went on a GG1 spree and then ran afoul of the TOS. I did enjoy his posts so much.

Great work! Latest technology in 3d printing and Arduino controls will be an awesome addition to your club.
Started a new kit. Doesn’t mean I’ve actually finished anything else, but I’ve been looking for this kit for a long time and finally got one for a “reasonable” price.
I’ve seen a number of pictures of this kit, but when I got it, I was somewhat underwhelmed. It was a lot smaller than it always looked in pictures, and I just couldn’t see building it as is. Sooooo I cut a hole in it. 
Not gonna be a barber shop or a news stand. It had all the look of a corner cafe to me, so instead of the plain wall where the news stand belongs, I cut it open for some grandt line windows and a set of doors. A covered patio will replace the news stand on the sidewalk.
So far I’ve got the walls stood up. Past experience has taught me that white glue is the best glue for putting these together. It takes a while to dry, but you can paint over it, unlike any epoxy that leaks thru the joints. White glue also gives you a slight change of being able to pop a bad corner apart (epoxy has a nearly 0% chance of allowing that).
With the big hole in it, I’ll cut a floor out of styrene and glue the walls to it for some extra support and stability once the walls dry.

I cant wait for Elliott to take down his next layout Seems like every three years We have alot of Munoz buildings on our layout We would have had the power plant but we already have too much power from Marty Fitzhenrys layout
Beautiful work. Love that power station!
