That sunken roof looks better. I've sent you both emails, but if it's like before, it might take a month for you guys to get them. You guys and your dirt, bad enough I have to work in it, I ain't gonna live in it!
:D

Up here Ben, the chemical factories were actually making acetone from pulpwood. Hemlock bark was stripped in the woods at the landings. An engine would spot a couple of bark cars and the bark peelers would have all day to stack the cars. That bark was used to make tannic acid. I've got to dig up an ...

Oops, bad joke. Didn't even get off the ground. I've got those two cars also, Ken. Sometime I'd like to try the old tannery buildings that were down in Tioga. I've only got one picture, so I built a mock-up in cardstock, mostly by guess. Needs more outbuildings, but I don't have the details. Peter's...

Ha, and I've got a project for you. Have you seen the new Walthers sale catalog? There's a Z scale sawmill in there, similar to Rich Blake's that would be great. Looks like I'm going to have to break into my new truck money and buy some more Z scale stuff. Things are so darned tiny, though.

The cells are 4x6 meaning that there is a wall every 4 foot. (3 inner walls)
Went right over my head. ZOOM! There goes that horse!

I'm probably talking out the south end of a northbound horse, but I think the roof support poles should be running the other way, (short way), less deflection, spaced no more than 4 foot on center. The front wall, window side, might be a foot or so higher, more like a false front? Norm Got tired of ...

Say Curtis, As you are the only person I know that has any information about 30 inch stuff, what would be the proper truck under a passenger car 30 inch gauge? I was thinking that I had your wooden frame truck mesh, but I was mistaken, again. My guess would be 22-1/2 inch ribbed back wheels on eithe...

You're not speaking from experience now, are you? We built one down in Elizabeth, NJ, well, actually it was a police station, with holding cells, and that was quite nice. Almost better than some motel rooms I've stayed in.

What would happen if you made an alpha mask to give it jagged, and or rounded corners? Ha, me giving advice to the King of Reskinners. There seems to be a preponderance of the seamy side of life lately, how about a nice livery stable?

Rick, your saloonsign1.bmp is not a power of 2. It's 192X96, so I changed it to 256X128. No errors. I know, I know, 2004 doesn't care. Just in case you'd like to know. Looks like you and I are having email problems again.

I REALLY like those barrels. Got 'em. I still think you need some hussies up on the balconey. I sent you lamp post linda, but she's still out there in cyberspace.
How do you know how much to degrade the mesh using LOD? Guess it's kinda look and see.

Are the people there by attachment point, or added in surveyor? Those shady ladies on the balcony would be a good addition.
