I can only agree - it do change the look dramatically ..... getting the roof and sides on the "skeleton" you're making right now, will even hide that fact that you haven't got to the boiler etc. Hey who's hogging the popcorn ?
You got the tracks done, or at least mostly done, you've got the business end mostly done, and you've got the cab skeleton mostly done. Now all you've got to do is fill up that big honkin' hole in the back and you're done-done.You're gonna have it finished by the end of next week, right?Don
Well Chris, I think I know the answer ...but have you thought of only partial cladding for the roof & sides of the cabin?.......Something like a scattered 10% here or there......Derek
Wow!: This is really starting to look like the full size!I'd say you're nearly done but I believe you still have a boiler to tackle. Great work Chris.PS I'd have the Frisco done by now if I wasn't continually side tracked with all this progress (hey- I'll use any excuse I can).
Chris,Do you have to saw all the lumber for the cab, or is it covered by metal? Looking good!Art
At some point the quarry replaced the cab with all metal plate siding and a smooth metal roof.
Chris,QuoteAt some point the quarry replaced the cab with all metal plate siding and a smooth metal roof.Actually I am glad to hear that cause I can see in my minds eye you sawing all these boards 1/16 X 1/4 inch for the board covers. Art
