Working on the last couple of details. Here’s the entry door, and stairs.
Next up is fabbing 4 loading dock ladders.

Nice steps!! Will you make the ladders from brass?
Yep, already have 4 of them cut out and bent, just need to find my soldering flux.

That looks like the captain on the Titanic…
how do you solder these fine wires, without having big blops of tin at every junction?
Hm, never thought about it really. Nice clean brass, not too much flux, very hot iron, and a small amount of solder.
Placed it outside where it will eventually end up. Need to expand the benchwork here a lot to accommodate the building and the scenery around it.
