Thank you Deano!

Here is one of the finished doors on Acme:



I took this pic of some electrical boxes/meters that I wanted to put on the structure:



I first shrunk the pic down to scale using the door as a reference. Usually I would use styrene to make the boxes but I didn't have any the correct thickness, so I used wood instead. I placed the shapes on the pic and trimmed them to size:



Not perfect but good enough. I really am not worried about a whole lot of detail on this, since it will be on the side with trees around it.


Painted and in place:




Still have to put some more conduit on the wall, and finally replant the trees I took out to work.


I think this is a pretty good method for a beginner to scratch-building. It will ensure scale size boxes, in a prototype arrangement. The natural tendency is to think, "that has to be small enough"....it usually isn't

Take care!
