Tmo kitbash '24 build challenge
#3
I wanted to provide a little background on how easy it is to kitbash these structures using parts from other kits - and I'd have you keep in mind that if a part doesn't "fit" as printed, one option that's always available is to print the plans in a different scale by modifying the "scale" in the PDF print options.  Clever sells about half of their kits in O-scale, but they give you the printer scale to print in any scale - HO is 55% for instance.

So, I brought up that I liked the rollup door from the "Brick Machine Shop" and I'd shown the printout in the previous post.  In order to fit the two kit together, I simply measure the size of the opening needed, draw that onto the "Philly Modular Flat" section, cut out and apply the folded 3d rollup door section into the backside of the Philly modular section.

       

Here are three sections ready to incorporate, and I want to do a fourth, but I want to use a different set of doors, this time off of the first Clever kit I built, the Garage with Loft has some really nice aged barn style doors that I'll add in the fourth section.
