JCB BLOKE Posted July 19, 2008 Author Share Posted July 19, 2008 do you work from photographs ? must admit , this sort of build must test your patience at times \ ooh yeah the wall at spalding , quality work, serious tattoo's No I don't work from photographs - just from out of my head. Buildings I see when I am out and about. If you do it that way then you can't go wrong, but I do like them to be built as a full size building should be, or at least that is my opinion anyway.

JCB BLOKE Posted July 20, 2008 Author Share Posted July 20, 2008 wow thats great, what do you use for the mortor then? It's a grout that's bought from the stone suppliers, it's similar to tile grout but you make it up a lot runnier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MF Joel NZ Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 You must have alot of patience to stick at making something so fine as that :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCB BLOKE Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 Update... stone work finished, all pointed up. Its been a very slow job, but I think it's been worth it. Next job is woodwork - windows, doors, floors and trusses. Then electrics and finally the roof. Still a lot of work to do, but winters coming (or is it here already!?)

Deere-est Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Why oh why have we got a swear filter!! :o :o Look at it!! I know you have been for weeks but. .... just look at it!!!! If I learn a couple more languages I can use all the same words again without anyone knowing because I have run out of english to sum this up. It looks so typical of many buildings up your way just left out to the elements without any care for them. It's a beauty, can't wait to see it all done witha couple of SCALEdowns hanging around, some dust and straw etc. ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
