Yup, same material as the shop. Proper name for it is Coroplast. Sold by the 4x8 sheet and cost 20 bucks. But you don't even know the rates might be out of your price range. Quote:
Thanks Reg. I love the hula doll idea. Maybe I should find one of those Santa Claus mechanical moving dolls, dress it up as a hula girl , flip the switch and listen to her say " ho, ho , ho " .... |

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
Forgot to post this last night. Did another video of the building and lights for it. I'm seeing an issue with one part of the build. The plywood base is made of 1/4" fir plywood. Since I cut the piece out of sheet on Friday and painted the edge, it's warping like crazy and the peg holes aren't lining up as easily. Need to rework the base.

Here's what I mean, I've got that 12'X20' tarp garage back there and it is not anchored or held down by anything. Back in October we had a wicked wind storm like I'd never seen. Winds up over 60mph, trees down all over town, I thought, that garage is gone...... It didn't move an inch! As an extra precaution so I don't have to look through the neighbourhood for the buildings I figure a tether cord to keep the building in the yard. If the roof blows off and disappears?.... That's ok, I got 5 bucks. I'll build another. |

That reminds me of a story from work a few years ago. I was working at a underground gold mine that uses a ramp for access. All man vehicles were Toyota landcrusiers all beefed up and built tough. A couple guys were heading down the ramp, speeding along of course when a 4ft pinch bar that was laying on the road was kicked up , came through the floor board, missed the drivers leg, popped the shifter out of gear and jammed into the centre of the seat! Our Toyota service truck was equipped with the same kind of bar as in the incident. First thing I thought when I heard about it. Check and see if ours is missing!!! Thankfully it was on the truck. Anyway, what a freak incident that could've been much worse. |

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
Call this building complete! I corrected the warping base issue with some wood strips around the edge. Kinda glad it happened because it now gives the house a foundation and gets the plywood up off the ground once in the backyard.
New height also meant I needed to make some stairs. I tried making out of wood but wasn't liking the look. Kept turning out like a grade 5 art class creation. So once again I turned to my new found material for an answer and sure enough an idea came to me! Removed one section on this side...... 2 sections on opposite side..... Warm up the glue gun and end up with scale size steps! 11" deep with a 8" rise! Tested some of that textured paint in a can stuff and very pleased with the results! I got all kinds of new uses for it on future buildings! Actually does have texture and goes on nice and I hate painting Last post on buildings here. Going to start a thread under scale buildings I think. |
