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.
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!
Great video Greg. Tiny and big in detail. Great job
Thank you so much, James. See you this weekend.
sweet build!
Thanks, I appreciate it.
