Buildtorials Simplify Scratch Building Structures
Had to coin a new word for this Scale Modelers Handbook feature because I wanted to present a tutorial based on the build process for the structures I am using on my new layout, the St. J. and L.C.
The idea is to take pictures and do the writing while I am scratch building the structure which keeps techniques both instructional and mistakes fresh in my mind while writing. Yes, mistakes. You can learn a lot from my bloopers and perhaps save time and money. The buildtorials will include prototype pictures, in progress pictures, plans and tool lists as needed. As completed, you will find these buildtorials (both complete and sectionals) right here.
