Hi everyone, I made it.

Hi guys, here is another module that i built a couple months ago before i started my shelf layout (which is gone now lol)

I got inspired by this building from a real building that i pass by nearly everyday. It is a CAT Equipment Rental Store that rents out there equipment for construction. They newly re-modeled and made a new building on there site, so i made a model of there new building. The old building is still standing and would be behind this building if it was included on this modules.... The real building that i modeled has 4 service bays and is double sided, meaning you could drive a piece of machinery in and repair/do maintenance on it and then drive it out the other side, mine only has 3, just didn't have enough room lol

Here is the CAT Rental Building from Start to Finish:



I set up some walls to get the rough dimensions for the building, allowing enough room for a small parking lot in front, a 2 lane road w/center divider and a sidewalk.










Service Bay wall and Front Entrance Wall glued together




Rear Walls glued together








Building glued together. I used lots of white strips to help keep it strong and give it more support. I also used blocks of wood for the corners to keep them at 90 degrees as well as wood blocks for the roof line.






Roof cut out






Roof installed, Service Bay Doors installed, and front glass installed




Building painted and in its new home




Cadged Ladder added

It seems when I am jumping around I keep getting logged off. Am I doing something wrong?

I would rather have to socialize with my ex-wife than go through that registration process again. I think I have the Reverse Midas Touch - if I touch it, it malfunctions.

Took over a dozen or more tries before I managed to get all eight fingers and both thumbs to work together, but I'm here and it's like coming home, tempered by some sadness over the events elsewhere. (I can be PC if I have to...)

Anyway, glad to be here. It would have been lonesome without familiar "faces". Smilies are nice, too!

Oh, nuts...I just realized I have to start all over again with a post count.

Thanks for the invitation to join in the fun... it is already sounding familiar here with the names of all our old friends logged on. Here's wishing the new, improved Gauge and long and successful "run", and a big howdy to all the old hands already on board.

Ok, I am probably missing it, but is there a setting somewhere to subscribe automatically to threads that you post in?

This is fantastic, thanks for the invite. I have to go to bed now but will be back tomorrow to look around. I can't believe how happy I am!

G'day. Just check in.


Cheers

I wondered what caused the moderator exodus... I figured it couldn't have been coincidence!

Looking forward to the good community that was The Gauge being reincarnated here.

I'll even try to play nice.

Hopefully you folks can keep it alive without having to go the commercial route the other board went.

Cheers!

WOW!! My first ever first first post!!

Buy or trade - I have a Riva Lt Pacific & Riva IHB 0-8-0 loco (only) if you need parts.

I need a Riva BigBoy driverod, 2nd-3rd or 3rd-4th.

regards,
