I really enjoy seeing each and every instalment that you issue. I model 0 gauge (English, c 1930 - 40) , and I too have a fascination for detail. I too create the interiors for my buildings and also create little detail areas, such as people gathering round and chatting. I have a poacher being apprehended by the squire on horseback with his shotgun pointed at the poacher and two police officers taking down all the details. I also have a light engineering works where the Forman is telling the lathe operator why he has no time to make him tea whilst another worker is outside reading the newspaper. And many other features. I do not light my buildings - it being permanently daylight in my recreation. I model in the garden and my layout runs from shed to shed via a big loop through the garden. I have gained so much from your build techniques, thanks. I never miss a posting, although I may not see them in the correct order. Regards, Paul (in Cornwall, England).
There’s the spot I can’t seem to get past for the last 3 years… actually building benchwork! I like you box girders though I’ll have to screenshot that.
You have great vision. I finally saw what you tryed showing and telling how it would at the end. This is why I so enjoy watching and learning from you. Thanks so much. GOD BLESS 🚂 💕 🚂 💕 🚂 💕
My O3r layout is over built. I used 2x4 lumber as I had a bunch on hand.....but also because BIG die cast locos can be extremley heavey.....so maybe not over built a lot!! Thanks

Always interesting insights into model making. Thanks for showing.

Always fun building in a 100 year old building! Well done Dave, looking forward to future installments! Particularly those switchbacks!

Looking real good. The suspense is building.
Thank you, Dave…. Looking forward to the next installments, I can see that Coyote Canyon, is going to be awesome…
You make it look so easy.
Excited to see the next installment!
Thank you for the ground up build
Have you thought of using pocket hole construction for your frame work?
That does make for a strong joint, though it's an extra bit of work. I've been building box frames this way for 30 years with no issues.
Nice to see the framework coming together, but I want to know. What happened to your signature drywall screws 😂 using wood screws now 😮.
Someone gave me a box of wood screws!
