    great looking build Ron, older structures like this gives me a fine appreciation for the craftsmanship that went into the design and construction of buildings from an earlier era. A lot more visually interesting than structures built today. Your techniques look fantastic and I will be excited to see the model completed, Cheers Rob

    Hey Ron,
    Enjoy watching the video of this scratchbuilding project. It gives me some confidence to try on myself. I model HO scale and do mostly southen railroads: Central of Georgia, Southern, ACL, Seaboard, and Gulf Mobile and Ohio roads. Thanks for the tip on canopy gun. I had trouble with CA glue doing just what mentioned in the video.

    • @RonsTrainsNThings

      Hi, Nate. Yes, the canopy glue is fantastic for a number of things, including window glazing.

    • @RonsTrainsNThings
      @RonsTrainsNThings  4 года назад

      Hi Trenton. Yes, just a few added parts and/or details can really change the look of a sturcture kit and make it look unique.

    Nice, by the way if you sand the corners slightly over angle you will not have outside gaps. 45.5 or 46 will make the outside corner tight. Use the internal bracing and it will be a sold gap free corner. Tell next week. Thanks

    lt's looking sharp Ron! You see a lot of that style of building with carport in quite a few small Texas towns.

    • @RonsTrainsNThings
      @RonsTrainsNThings  4 года назад

      Hi, Yes, I lived in North Texas for 6 years and remember seeing several businesses similar to this style, especially in smaller towns. Are you a Texas resident?

    • @twostepn2001
      @twostepn2001 4 года назад

      Oh yeah....born and raised on the high plains of Texas. From what l understand, a lot of that type of building were built as car dealerships back then. They sold the cars plus all the services after sale including oil and gas. Under the "carport" was where the gas pumps were located.

    Do you think there is a difference between the MEK you buy in a pint jar under a brand name in a hobby store vs the MEK you can buy in a quart can in a hardware store?

    How much time did it take you to make the building?

    • @RonsTrainsNThings
      @RonsTrainsNThings  Год назад +1

      The basic structure is a kit, so it only took an hour or so to assemble. The "car port" was scratch built, so I spent around 4 hours on it (ish...it was 2 years ago so hard to remember exactly). Painting, weathering and details probably another couple.hours spread.outbover a few evenings.

    • @RonsTrainsNThings
      @RonsTrainsNThings  4 года назад +1

      MEK is methyl ethyl ketone, a solvent that makes a great cement for styrene. You can get it by the quart at .most hardware stores.

    I just discovered your channel about 2 weeks ago. I find it a bit odd that with all the help you have with production etc. You don't have your projects grouped into playlists. I start watching a project and then it skips to another and another etc. I like the channel but I get tired of clicking all over trying to find the next in the series.

    • @RonsTrainsNThings
      @RonsTrainsNThings  3 года назад

      I think you will find most of my projects are in dedicated playlists. This particular project I realized now did not get one, partially because I got carried off by another project and have not finished it.
