    Got these plans from Mark Watson, but I can't seem to find the orrigional thread so...... Here are a couple picks of the building in progress. Its cut from cardboard, and only temporarly taped together to check the fit. I will probably
    just scribe siding on the two sides that are able to be seen from the front.

    Hey, that looks right at home on your layout. And you can't beat the price. Nice work. You've inspired me to try something similar ... eventually.
