    Need advice on how to scratch build

    I recommend using Evergreen styrene sheets rather than cardboard and wood, although my little shack turned out okay in building it to the directions (with strip wood). I just find the styrene much easier to work with and using scribed styrene sheets adds hugely to the finished product...

    Railway and Forestry museum. B. C

    Nice pics! I used to live very close to where the electrified BC Rail coal trains ran. Silent death. There is another great museum with an operating Shay down on the island.

    Water

    I have had excellent results using two-part epoxy. Actually the first time I used it I borrowed the epoxy from a fiber glass repair kit that I had sitting around. It worked great! Epoxy is easy to work with but not especially inexpensive. I haven't looked around lately for small quantities...

    Ajax Oil Refinery

    Almost finished with my Ajax Oil refinery. Lots of little detail work to do but most of the construction is done. Almost everything is scratchbuilt. The boiler house was an old Model Power kit, as was the water tank behind it. The rest is pretty much scratch built, beginning with a Plastruct...
