It took me longer to download, resize and print the advert which I found on a model railroad website than it did to peel off half of the inkjet paper from the back, stick it on a piece of old, saved scribed siding and build a frame. The boards below the sign are made from Grandt Line fencing cut down. It just needs settling into the ground cover then it will reside happily here in front of Ashford's Mining Supply.
The early years pre 2021 archived here. My freelance adventures in Colorado in Hon3. Buildings, scenery, details and character are my interests with operation well down my priorities. The layout is a scant 8x12 ft so compromises have been made to squeeze in the scenic and building work I love. Influenced by Allen, Olsen and Furlow along with Earl Smallshaw, John Swanson and latterly Sam Swanson. I make no claim to authenticity and retain my tongue firmly in cheek while modelling.
Greeting
These pages stem from the start of my loft modelling odyssey up to the great Covid 19 lockdown enforced upon me.
