Large Scale Central

The CAMB Beer & BBQ

The MIK - Annual Build Challenge
#1

CAMB is the initials of my 4 son in laws, Chad Augie Marco and Brian, who along with me Love beeeer and BBQ, so a building was in the planning stages, along with buildings and businesses for all the grandkids, and my moms house, so I figured this would be a good time to jump in with both feet. After doing the required napkin/paper towel drawing I am seeing a big reshttp://www.largescalecentral.com/FileSharing/user_6563/new%20build/1483503024065.jpgemblance between this and a Cracker Barrel, but oh well. Do not know what happened to the picture but looks all squished. if this doesn’t work right I will re post when I get home.

Edit to state this is my first challenge. And to reflect the proper name.

Jeez Pete so much for easing into this scratch built thing. I love it. But you are right there is a serious Cracker Barrel feel to it.

#3

Good looking building Pete. Can never go wrong with anything that includes beer and BBQ.

#4

That is pretty cool, and two of my favorite subjects also.

What the heck, go big and that way the failure is spectacular, Devon. I think I have the parts and stuff to attempt this, … I might morph into a false front if the stone blocks will not be enough for the plans, which are way preliminary.

#6

Well back in the day a great many buildings had false fronts and wood structures. If your modeling late 1800’s early 1900’s I would say that would be more appropriate

#7

I was thinking of/ meant a building front against a wall on the layout, since the layout is not built and not sure where it will be placed on the not built layout, and looking for a way out if I run into time constraints, but a full size side is pretty much needed to show off the huge Taylor Tin and Stoneworks Challenge blocks fireplace on the napkin drawing.

edited to finish the thought line

#8

oh lol, well that works also and is a great idea

#9

Ran like a kid to the mailbox when I saw the truck drive by, and my pile o blocks has arrived, Thanks Dave!!! now to start the actual planning and measuring to see how and where things will fit.
