Kitbashing a Lumber Yard for my Model Railroad

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I'm taking a break from trackwork and getting started on a kitbash project. It's a lumber yard and millwork built from 3 Atlas lumber yard kits. This is my first kitbash project so I expect to learn a little bit and have some fun

    Hi Drew, hey I wanted to let you know about a tool that might just be the thing for scribing the lines back into the outer wall of the kit. Look to our friends that are model car enthusiasts, it's Called a panel line scraper, it's used to deepen the lines around doors or trunks on 1/24 scale model cars, Micro Mark sells them or any hobby shop that stocks model cars.

    A great kit bash and one I have thought about doing my own self except these days I don't have the space for it. The drafting world has what they call dividers. Pretty much identical to a compass used to draw circles. The dividers are a pair of sharp points that can be spaced how ever far apart you need them. Measure the distance you need on your scale rule. Put one point in your case at the very edge of your wall and the other where where you want the first scribe. Push down slightly and then rotate the point that is on the very edge and push down again and repeat over and over again. I use either a cut offed drafting T-Square to mark the lines using the holes you made or a small machinist square that I picked up from Micro Mark, if you don't already have one.

    Very carefully... I caught it before I added the header so I was able to use my xacto to cut it out and reposition it. I intended to include footage of it my video, but it seems my camera cut out on me.

    Yeah, I don't think that part is super clear in the instructions. I'll do my best to show that as clearly as possible. I haven't actually done a trek at Philmont, I just visited while passing through the area. Our troop went in late July, but my son decided he wants to do Northern Tier next summer instead.
