:oops: I still can't get the SignMaker to work offline, (course I'm stupid about Java) I have done both what the web said and also here. I have the latest Java and it is on but no-go. I also am running XP and almost 500mg of memory. Help again! I really like the program but would like to do it...

:wave: Thanks everyone, it was fun to do. And now for the burnt window. :oops: I often get impatient, such as watching paint dry, sooooo when I paint something and can't wait, I will stick it in the microwave for 30 seconds to warm it up thus the paint cures quick. Well I forgot I had already...

:wave: Yep, I was at it again. Here as promised is Tuckers Taxi, it is an N-Scale take off of the Karls Kab by Jim Moonie. It is all scratch build from those plans with my own alterations. I also used a John Allen trick to this model, it has 2 mirrows inside to give the look of more room and...

:wave: Hi everyone, been busy with house work and yard work but got a little time for modeling also. Here is a Bachman freight station I bashed together. I didn't realize till I was almost done that this is the same one Drew used to do the Marksberry Feed Co. Now you have 2 versions of the same...

:wave: Hi Doug, take a look at my post "A touch of John Allen", if this is the one you were talking about I have the original plans for the Allen one and if you talk real nice to an old man I could e-mail them to you. The one I did was a kitbash. :rolleyes: Jim...

:D Thanks guys, I can't give a picture how-to at the moment as I am out of the rubber compound, but I'll try this way. I use a peice of pexliglass as a base for the mold, I used the wall Drew sent me as the master, I used the tried and true lego block to form the mold frame work leaving a half...

:rolleyes: Yeah it's me again. :cry: Do you guys remember when I did my backdrop on my micro using paper building I did on the computer? Well I knew I was going to redo them someday when I found what I wanted to replace them. I was looking for something that would resemble old brownstone...

:cool: Hi all, this is one of my all time favorite kits as I think it is by many. I have bought many in HO and N scale. I try to do each one just a little different to keep inline with the area being modeled, giveing it the "it belongs there" look. I still use my road colors of pullman green...

:wave: thanks very much for the nice words. I love the kit myself. Thanks :thumb: Jim

MUDDY CREEK Building Sears Catalog House 115 I received the Sears house 115 and in two short evenings I added it to the Sears neighborhood. I followed the instructions pretty close for this one and it is a snap for a wood kit. Every thing you need comes packaged with this kit. It has an...

:thumb: Using the Walthers Bralick building, this is what I think it may have looked in days gone by. I will use it as a background building on my layout. Hope you enjoy it. Long, tall and narrow is the way I like to build them as you can cram in more scenery to google at. With...

:thumb: Hi gang, Drew sent me a box of stuff in peices with a note that basicly said, "Jim, I know you enjoy kitbashing as much as I, so here is some stuff for you to have fun with." Well, I did, I am and I will. After some thought I figured 'what the hell would Drew do', so I tried to model in...
