Building Graves Elevators by Bar Mills Pt.1

I am not supposed to work on this yet. The plan was to paint and assemble several fork lifts and send them along with the Gibley's first and then start the Graves Elevators. What can I say? I am small and weak man...
So far I have assembled the shell of the larger building. The shell later will get an application of the "stucco". The original idea was to apply it right away but then if there was some fit issue with upper clapboard walls it would not be easy to address it. Therefore, I decided to wait until I get upper part done and check the fit.

Building The Shoppe's on Concord Street by Carolina Craftsman Kits Pt.2

I have been thinking if I should ask my bosses to let me work from home one day per week. That would allow me to save at least two hours of driving which I could use on building models. Or get more sleep what is another very tempting option. The downside is that the refrigerator would be within easy reach...
The shoppes are moving along. Slow but steady. I only have 45 minutes of the break left after I eat my lunch. That still is probably more than some other modelers spend per week.

Building Concord Street Houses by Carolina Craftsman Kits Pt.2

Well... I am not very good at keeping my promises. At least when it comes to keeping this blog up to date. I have been having writer's block over the past few months. Or perhaps the life itself has become too dull. In any case, here are the photos.
