Work continues. Three out of four doors and door frames printed.
And starting to manufacture the siding.

Really looking good bob
I guess I missed it Bob, what sort of corrugator did you use?
This one, from Rio Grande Jewelry
Thanks for the reminder, sure looks like I did see it!
My memory is going south…
Looks GREAT!!
Picking this project back up, because it’s taking up the most space on my workbench. Opted for non-corrugated steel ‘shingles’ for the roof, for a bit of variety. Goes pretty quick, about a third done today so far. .003 steel cuts quick with the old guillotine paper cutter.

For Ken ( I really miss his attitude and contributions as he was my other dad but not the real one)…Looks great Robert !
Front side of the roof completed as far as I can before doing the peak. Next up, the back, but I had to order more shim stock first, so it’ll be a few days.

still loving this project.
Bob, might have missed it, and I assume I know the answer to this already, buy why are you using steel shim stock for the roof? My assumption is because nothing mimics rust better than actual rust?
Thats pretty thin stuff, do you know if it will crimp with a Friskers crimper to make corrugated roofing? Would you have to anneal it first? I know you got one of those fancy crimper things awhile back will that crimp it?
Yes, I like that it will rust over time. I’m not sure if the Fiskars crimper will do .003, I have used .001 through my old crimper and it works. The 003 will crimp with the new one I got, just fine. No annealing needed.
What was the manufacturer of that crimper. I am to lazy to go back and look. But that may very well be my next tool. I have lots of tools I’d like to have but I do enough roofing and have a lot more to do that I can actually see getting one.

Nice!
Where does it go? (And when??? 
)
When it’s done, it goes in the RR shed with all the other buildings.
