I finished up my grain mill. It was a 'kit' from Ozark Miniatures. Basically a box of materials and some small, simple plans.

It was all foamboard, so I made a lot of it with plywood. The vacumn formed sheets for the boards/corrugations came with it. I took pictures of the signs on the grain mill here in town and printed them off on ink jet vinyl, then shot them with a UV clear coat.

25", I made it 4" shorter than the plans called for. Thought that would fit in better with my small layout.

Yes very nice job - I like looking at other people's buidings (might get some ideas myself). To me they provide as much, if not more, interest as locos and rolling stock.

Thanks guys, just hope it holds up to the outside weather. Snowing/blowing today, but they say we may see the sun(whatever that is) this weekend and be warm enough to run trains.
