Scratch built shack!

[Drew Toner]

I built an Ash Creek Lumber Co. MoW / RIP shack with plans from T. F.

I plan on giving it to a friend to put on his layout. Now I'll have a reason to bring my 'modern' McCloud boxcars out of storage. He is modelling a free lanced modern theme. (he buys what ever is new!!!)

Besides, I don't think that those big sixty foot McCloud cars would even be able to negotiate the right of way of the Ash Creek.

And if any one asks what that wire is sticking out of the roof is, I'll have to show you

 

[Arlaghan]

Very nice!!!

Ok, I'll take the bait... what's the wire for? hehehe.

a Flag Pole

now remember, I'm putting it on his layout, not mine


LOL, I'm just kidding, I kinda like the ol' glory!!

That's a great looking shack. I really like that siding and roofing.

Looking good Drew, could use one of those on my little eNpire:thumb: :thumb: :thumb: Is the corrugated sides scratch our commercial?

 

[Drew Toner]

I've been shack attacked!!

thanks every one

I guess a flag pole would work as a lightening attracter, but this pole ain't grounded , so I could be in trouble.

The siding is comercial Campbells #804, HO scale. Not sure if is available in N scale.

(wait 'till you see the next one!

Since the roof and the walls are made from metal, the current of a lightning would probably flow that way - sort of a Faraday cage. But oh Boy - what a noise that would make when you were in that hut!

Drew, this is really a very neat model. Great weathering, too!

Great looking shack Drew. Love that chimney and the rust weathering it caused to the roof.
