Very nice. N scale - whoosh! You're braver than me. For roof flashing, you can get styrene sheets from Evergreen that are 0.005" thick - that's about 3/4" in N scale. For some reason, they don't offer any strips that thin (nor does Plastruct) - seems a waste to cut a small piece out of a huge sheet, but there you are...
Thank you so much. Ha ha, just a little brave. You're right about the styrene, and I should have thought of it. I have the 6x12 sheets in .001 thru .004 in my stash, along with plenty of scraps that would have worked. It's just getting used to working in N scale. LOL
Nice video. Inquiry: What, exactly is that Lamp Jig (7:26), and how does it work? I have some gooseneck lamps (Tichy Train) to build in N scale, and could sure use something. Thanks!
Thanks. All it is is a piece I made for holding Tichy lamps with the bulbs in them flat for gluing on various supports, either theirs or ones I've made. I just drilled a couple holes in a piece of wood and glued on another piece to hold them up while gluing. I use it mostly for HO but it works for N as well. Thanks for watching.
Great video Greg. Tiny and big in detail. Great job
Thank you so much, James. See you this weekend.
Greg, another great video. Good tip on the sanding the building gable roof. I just glued my together tonight.
Thanks, Todd. I saw it, and it looks great!
sweet build!
Thanks, I appreciate it.
