My First Scratchbuild - Justinmiller171 - 09-03-2010
I would like to share a photo of my first scratchbuild I did a few months ago(ignore the messy "Workbench"),
![[Image: HPIM4089.jpg?t=1283575997]](http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab4/Justinmiller171/HPIM4089.jpg?t=1283575997)
It is a team track ramp I built using Micro Engineering Ho-scale Ties. It defiantly needs some fixing up, but I think it looks fairly nice for something that took
a little over an hour to build.

Looks nice, Justin. How are you planning to weather it?

I meant the scratches and smudges on the workbench, for the time being I have kept it clean of boxes and tools
Gary, I plan on weathering it at some point, I got a nice set of weathering chalk at the hobby store I have been wanting to try out
.

Yeah, and a "run" for about anything might get our blood moving again !
It takes time, and no small amount of technique development, but you are off to a good start there! ( better than my first scratch build ) :oops:

That's looking good to me! Add some color to those boards and put it to work on the layout.
