This scratch built freight-house, is a project I did in 1959/1960.......it finally found a permanent home on the new ( 30") module set..... "How long has it been ?" hmmm 1959.....THAT hock: was 57 years ago
This was also the first roof that I used individual simulated wood ( paper ) shingles on. Since then all buildings I roof with wood shingles, use the same "one-at-a-time" technique..........My best guesstimate, is somewhere around 8,000 individual shingles over those 57 years ( yeah "guesstimate"....I'm not even going to think about counting them all. )

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
