Very good JoeSho! I would however suggest printing out a sign from the Computer to make improve it a bit, but the overall construction is great!

Joesho, if you search the net, you can find a lot of free paper buildings you can download, print and make. They are actually a lot of fun to make, and look pretty good.

I've been playing arround at http://www.ss42.com/pt-buildings.html and found "The Simpsons" house in HO, I was thinking of making it for my N gauge layout.

Anyone know the % for scalling down the photocopy?

From 1/87 (HO), reduce it 55% for N scale.

Thanks Phil, since I switched over to N gauge I have so many HO plans I can now convert them over.
