Rosspop`s 7mm modelling saga.... A Goods Resin Roof.....
I`ve done all I can with reworking the stonework which seems to have been more challenging this time. One of the shed cast end pieces seems to have `soft` cast and my dental burr bit into it and nearly pierced the casting.
I`m sure if I had contacted Chris at Invertrain he would have replaced it.
However I`ve percevered.......
Photos of the original shed are not that common and I`ve wondered whether the shed actually had a skylight.
...but I found this and something is there.......
so... I was hoping to build a removable roof to help with painting later on, but first I wanted to reduce the roofs all round overhang and to use my slitting disc to produce a much finer edge to the roof tiles particularly at the barge board ends. Also, I wanted to position the soffits and fascia boards so that they did`nt encroach on the stone arches front and back.
So, orf` I wented..... donning a face mask I `milled` down the roof edges around the tile moulding and chamfered the top edges after reducing the overall size of the roof to give a better looking profile.
Then it was an easy task to superglue it all together using the end barge boards to get the roof angle square... so easy infact that I then wasted half an our slowly removing my thumb from the inside surface of the roof... very painfull....
But, mission accomplished.....
I`ve reworked the stone as far as I can but still need to Milli it up....
I`m generally quite pleased with progress today.......
