    Thanks, guys. I think that the guy in the shed is trying to remember where he placed 'that' tool that he needs.

    Here is another update photo. Since the last photo have added a vent pipe to the rear roof (toothpick painted black and weathered with rust powder), added tar around the chimney, weathered the chimney and roof, added the front step, and covered the foundation area with 1"x6" stripwood colored grey. (The kit had no provision for handling that foundation area.)

    Still a bit more to do before I will consider this project done. Some final photos will follow.

      Nice job Bruce. I like the weathering on the roof just enough.
      I'm sure he will find that tool by the next update!

        Howdy Bruce, Isaac's is a good-looking model that gets better with every detail addition. My sympathies to the worker looking for a tool. I am familiar with the problem of my mind getting on a horse and galloping off... Have fun, mike

          Very nice, Bruce. Thinking of picking up the O Scale version as a palate cleanser while waiting for some O Scale SWSM kits to arrive. Your grandson will love being featured. I have a son named, Isaac, and his name was often misspelled by family/friends.????

          Cheers,

            Curt, Mike & George, thanks for checking in and leaving a comment.

            I now consider the build done until it gets installed on the layout.

              Wow Bruce, what a nice looking building. Will be another nice addition to your layout.

                Thank you, Rob. Bar Mills has a bunch of eye catching 'smallish' kits.

              Amazing work Bruce.
              Looking back at the build it just occured to me that the shed was recycled/copied from Bar mills backshop/sign shop kit that I have on my layout.

                Thank you, glen. This is the type of small shed addition that would look good on many structures, so I guess that makes sense for them to do.

              Bruce, Your modeling has improved over the years, you still have it.

                Thanks, Rich. I might have it on some days, but on others my hands are too shaky for modeling. On those days I just walk away and come back another day.
