Scubadude's Summer 2010 Wood Cutter's Shack Challenge
#32
Thought I would post a quick update of the Woodshack......When we last visited, we were discussing the roof of the woodshed and the consensus was we were not exactly happy with the way it turned out. See pics above. I planned on ripping it off and build a corrugated tin roof to replace it. I was going to use the technique with tin foil and old computer wire in the thread link Mason Jar posted above. However, my good friend Allan, whose layout this is intended for, liked the tarpaper roof. He wants it to be old, rundown and very shabby. Remember, his layout is painstakingly modeled after the Clinchfield RR in 30's and 40's Appalachia in North Carolina http://www.wiringfordcc.com/xiety.htm. So it stays. I will try to dress it up a little with a couple pieces of scrap wood and maybe an old tire or two thrown on top.

Hope to work on it today, time for the tiny details and tools and detailing the inside of the shack itself. Might get a couple of pics posted tonight.....too hot to be outside today....supposed to hit 104 again Eek
Cheers,
Richard
