I could post a picture but the module is raw at this time, I have things placed and rough-really rough scenery-waiting to nail down something that will work for the next few months. I always seem to change after about 2/3 of the work is done. I do like the coast of Maine and especially woods...

Not any special place just the flavor of coastal Maine. I have around six HOn30 modules setup in our cottage and I'm adding a lobster dock area to a small bay on one of the modules that has track but few scenic details. The reason for using building paper is to try something different and...

I'll say cd because my dial-up connection prohibits big files. If I had a faster connection instant download is the way to go. How do you make any money if I download and pay for one item and then print five items for scratch building? David F

Thanks Galen - I too like the character in such a small structure. I'd like to modify it and turn the idea into a maple sugar making building. I will use the leads for the building paper and your link to the construction of the brick building for help, thanks. I like to download what you need...

Thanks Mountain Man!

Thank you Josh

And the completed garage. I finished with an I&A wash, green trim, overhang addition for wood and a jeep inside. The base is styrofoam packing glued to cardboard with WS ground cover and small details. Now to place it on the module. Thanks for looking at this Maine style garage. David F

This is the basic construction with openings for a commercial side entry door and a scratched front garage door. The window above the front door will be for the small storage area. The opening sized for a small caboose window salvaged from an old Urlich kit that didn't sell on Ebay and was cut...

I want to try building a Maine style house and store using some of the newer printed papers that represent wood. I placed an order with Clever but needed to start something right away so decided on this freelanced Maine style garage. I've posted the hand drawn plans / sketch in the new blueprint...

Galen, that is HOn30.

Small Stuff I enjoyed the pictures of the big stuff but here is some of the little logging equipment. Boxcab used on the Black Fly Lumber and some homemade disconnects. David F

Steamboat Scan A small jpg of the plans I worked from, with a ten foot HO scale line at the bottom to help convert to a different scale. David F

You are right on the length. I think the real boats were longer but this is a shortened version. I have a friend in Cali who built a longer version and I like that as well, some time in the future I plan to build a longer version too. Progress ont he lobster boats has stopped because of a trip...

Will scan what I used and let you build away. David F

Logicman, I will use the led idea, great-thanks! David F
