The Logging and Tractor Repair
Shed, limited edition kit number 203, has all the character and detail
you have come to expect from SierraWest. The main structure is built board
by board over digitally reproduced templates, and the interior framing
is made up of a series of unique x braces. There are 13 laser cut windows
(two types) and three different roofing materials, all of which combine
to make a prototypically accurate structure full of interest and purpose!
All packed into a small footprint of 9-1/2" x 11".
It serves an important role in the overall Deer
Creek Sawmill series. Here is a place for all of your logging
equipment to receive repair and maintenance work. The main rail service
is perfect for repairing rolling stock. A 24' logging flat car is included
for use in the shed. The side shed contains a tractor repair area complete
with a beautifully detailed BEST model 60 tractor under repair. This is
a great piece of detail with its partially dissembled left tread. Tucked
in the rear is a small blacksmith shop complete with forge.
There are over 70 castings, most mastered just for this kit! New
workbenches, shelves, tools, lockers, etc… literally line the entire length
of every wall. Details and clutter are packed into every nook, just as
a well used logging shed would look. The majority of the details are inside,
and just look how detailed the outside is! There is an abandoned rail
siding along the long left side, with detail from front to back. Behind
the shed runs deer creek, which feeds the sawmills log pond.
The Logging and Tractor Repair Shed is a true craftsmen kit. No
shortcuts or compromises, just sound techniques and quality components.
The construction manual focuses on weathering, aging, and scratch building
techniques. The templates are accurate and easy to follow. Fuzz–free stripwood,
SierraWest color signs, aluminum roofing, tar paper, and laser cut windows
are also included. Scenery, figures, track, and trucks not included.
