01-24-09 The Cellar Part 1

After not having time to work on the layout due to the holidays and other projects, I finally had time to start work on the next building in the brewery complex.  This building houses the tanks where the beer is aged.

I used Walther’s American Hardware Supply kit for this building.  I washed the mold release off the parts as usual.

This kit had some options on the sidewalls.  I chose to put large freight doors towards the rear of the building.  I used some extra wall sections that had a brick texture to brick in the freight doors on the rear wall.  Freight cars cannot be parked behind this building because there is a turnout right behind it

I glued the walls together.  Next, I will need to paint the walls, doors, and window frames.  Paining the walls will be harder because I will be painting the bricks a different color from the rest of the building walls

Please feel free to send me any comments, questions, or suggestions.
