And The Next Project Is

Almost done actually.

The current project (in addition to working on finishing a Jordan Fordson tractor) is the switch tower at Brooke, which is the last building for Brooke.  This has been an interesting kit.  Some parts are missing and some parts are mirror images of the actual kit which makes them difficult but not impossible to use.  And of course I modified the kit.

My major modification was the addition of a window on the other side of the chimney.  And since I did this I replaced the upper story windows with Tichy windows so they would all look alike.  The kit still needs some filling and sanding, the installation of two window sills on the lower floor windows and the installation of the stair landing on the upper floor.  I will then be able to paint it and apply the shingles.
