MJB1 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 depending on how long you need the yorkshire boarding try lolly sticks from any craft shop about 24 in a pack at about ?1.25 per pack also toffee apple sticks ?1 (15) for fencing posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted December 22, 2005 Author Share Posted December 22, 2005 Good to hear it TM. Think I may order some wall tops to make a yard for this shed and a couple of others. When I'm home I will post a pic of the lighting splints I have got for the yorkshire boarding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted January 14, 2006 Author Share Posted January 14, 2006 Forget to take photo's of the splints didn't I!!!! Well here is the Scaloox, walling finished and glued to the board. Did this by drilling through the underside of the board an into the bottom of the wall sections, glueing to the board then poking cocktail sticks through the board up into the walls for extra holding strength. Paint on the Plastruct framework of my big shed is drying as we speak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 looking good tris,what are you using for the roof? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted January 14, 2006 Author Share Posted January 14, 2006 I am going to plaster it yes FB, reckon it should look good. I've rubbed down any protruding blocks and stuff. Doc sorted me out with a Rotaspreader but I will be working on it before adding it to the collection. For the roof I am a little stumped TM, thought about thick card folded like it is on the instructin CD Rom, or balser as I have a fair bit of that. Along the front will be four balser post's and horizontal sections to support the roof. I may even file some Scallox blocks down to put at the base of the posts like those mushroom bases of days gone, know what I mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FB Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 yep know what you mean! :) i'm building his house and machine shed with some mods thats why its taking longer as i have to think about the blocks to use!. The roof is somehing i still need to think about! :D what was used for plastering??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
