So you might say so.  Jim Country: USA | Posts: 4693 Frank Palmer Fireman Posted - 01/09/2019 :  08:36:53 AM       I guess I should start off with "good morning Jim". Not to throw doubt on your building but, might that flat portion of the roof cause some problems with rain and snow load depending on what latitude the lounge is? Frank Country: USA | Posts: 5446 Bernd Fireman Posted - 01/09/2019 :  08:48:00 AM       Nice design you got there Jim. While everybody is thinking about the lounge furniture I'm thinking where's the "Lounge Layout" going to be located? What scale will it be in? Will it be a modular or will it be permanent? Will it be DC, DCC or R/C? An inquiring mind wants to know. Bernd Country: USA | Posts: 3234 BurleyJim Fireman Premium Member Posted - 01/09/2019 :  09:07:16 AM     Frank, You've got a good point there. On the plus side, it never rains or snows in the cave. On the negative side, the solar scam panels never get enough sun to produce any real power. Thanks for stopping by! Jim Country: USA | Posts: 4693 BurleyJim Fireman Premium Member Posted - 01/09/2019 :  09:41:54 AM     Bernd, The model is being built in HO scale. I'm using Fusion 360 as the CAD program. With a few keyboard taps, I could turn it into N, TT, O, or G scale rather easily. It'll be on a piece of foam until I decide whether to use it towards the Structures AP or not. More than likely, it'll end up on a friend's (forum member) DCC module. Thanks for the interest. Jim Country: USA | Posts: 4693 desertdrover Engineer Posted - 01/09/2019 :  10:44:37 AM     Now that's turned into quite a project from just a "Doodling after breakfast" moment. Nice work, CAD is noting I've ever done or attempted, but it seems you have it mastered. Hats off to you Jim!

Frank Country: USA | Posts: 5446 tloc Fireman Premium Member Posted - 01/09/2019 :  7:23:53 PM     I never thought of the Lounge as being green, but damn it looks good. Did you forget my 6 burner with griddle gas stove? Good doodling. Grouchy old men, never heard of that.

But, I don't know about 'mastering it', because it still can kick my butt when I go off on some tangent. I did a little window work today. Custom sized windows for any occasion.

It will be painted in suitable grunchy colors. About the stove...Eddie didn't like it. A little too complicated. So you may have to have a 'one on one' with him.

Jim Country: USA | Posts: 4693 Guff Fireman Premium Member Posted - 01/09/2019 :  10:18:48 PM       Jim, you're starting to master the CAD automation. Nice work! Dave David Guffey Country: USA | Posts: 1771 Bernd Fireman Posted - 01/10/2019 :  08:45:54 AM       Jim, I'm impressed with those prints. That last close up shows what looks like "fuzzies" on the part. How will that be taken care of?

Jim Sorry, green as being energy efficient. I spoke with Eddie this morning. He quit smoking so he couldn’t remember how to make eggs without cigarette ash. He is not interested in learning a new stove, prefers the big griddle we already have. I asked how does he make bread without a good stove, he said bakery! Your build looks great.
