Gang,

 

I am in the middle of making 48' of sidewalk.  I have already painted them.  Now I am scribing lines and washing with India ink.  These are still drying. 

 

So who's stupid idea was it to have this much sidewalk?  Yeah, this guy.

Oh, well.   Fifteen minutes making sidewalks can save you hundreds over buying them.

Vulcan - I agree there is just something about the look of the diner between the other buildings.  Very nice work!

 

Alan - The tanks are spectacular!  I love the colorful Phillips 66 logos n the white tanks.

 

Spence - Very cool UPS facility!  I need to incorporate UPS in my layout somewhere, some how.  Nice job!

It all belongs to Matt I., I was surprised, when I hooked it up, it worked.  That's part of the stereo speaker set-up.  There is a building that sets over top of the PC board. The LED display is visible through the one window.

It's actually the town barbershop - there's actually an interior with chair and "stuff".  Lemasters is so small that during this era that you either got you hair cut at home or walked to the only place in town to get your ears lowered.

Slips right in between the church and the undertaker's.  I'd be working on that undertaker's structure this week, but I've got a O scale kit for Perkin's Produce on my bench and a deadline to meet.

 

But, now that I have I have this shop in place I can also move across the street to install the scenery around 2 of the houses there.

I actually tried to sell off the assembled structure in unfinished resin on 2 separate occasions, but then just decided to keep it and put in onto the layout.  Probably squeezing out some other structure that I had actually planned on using, but I think I'm probably the better for that condition.

For it to be a showcase you should have at least posted a pic of Bueller.

 

I'm working on getting the diner in it's resting place.

Also, trying my hand at Leon Clark's asphalt method. So far Leon has nothing to worry about.
