Juneco Two stall enginehouse

[cnrglen]

When I last left off I had just installed the car shed and roof trusses. Now I'm working on the enginehouse roof itself.

   

I started to build the main roof trusses

   

All five of them. I stained them the same as the interior of the enginehouse.

   

Then I made the two main roof panels. as mentioned before I opted to use cardstock instead of the basswood sheet to minimise warpage. The shaded areas are the cut outs for the cleastory and smokejacks.

   

I also cut out the car shop and office roofs. These I used the supplied basswood. The car shop roof will be glued down but the office roof and main roof are designed to be removable. I airbrushed all the roof panels in depot buff and drew the guide lined for the eventual shingles.

   

I then added the small basswood guide blocks to the bottom of the roof trusses. These will center the roof over te side walls. Since I had added the extra stiffening stingers to the walls these blocks had to be located futher inward to clear.
