Russ, thank you for that very interesting and useful information. So even though my trailers are old, they could still be in service – looks like I don’t need to flatten the tires

Colin, welcome to The Gauge. This building is really as simple as it looks. I used 1,5 mm (.060") styrene for the walls and the strips and some small pieces of corrugated styrene for the rolling doors. The electrical boxes are made of 2 mm (.080") styrene and the wires I cut from a 0,3 mm (.013") sheet. For the downspout I used a 2 mm (.080") square brass tube. The door is just a few thin strips of 0,3 mm styrene I glued to the wall. If you build a structure like this, don’t forget to brace it with styrene strips on the backside to prevent warping. Please feel free to ask if there is anything you need to know.
