For the challenge I was going to build a grain elavator for my railroad. But my work thought I needed to be there. So, I was not able to enter my challenge in time. This what I got done. I started out with a solid frame of plywood then covered it with redwood strips

They are hand cut out of juniper and redwood. http://freightsheds.largescalecentral.com/users/smokey/_forumfiles/ELV-6.jpgThe spout was cut from an old oil can. The finials on top are cut from plastic shrimp forks. And the lights are rice lights that I already had, I’ll get them wired in with the outside system as soon as I can get my buildings out. http://freightsheds.largescalecentral.com/users/smokey/_forumfiles/ELV-7.jpgSo far I have spent $1.00 and that was on the plastic shrimp forks from the dollar store. Even though I am way to late - I ust thought I’d let you know I was working on something.
