I scratch built a log house. I made it using some sticks, plaster, junk mail, tin foil and a few other odds and ends.

Here's a link to the pictures I took while I was building this:

Ok Dave. You need to stop now. You're making the rest of us look like bad.



Seriously though - NICE WORK!!!!

I’ll join in to compliment you on your modeling skills. If I’ve ever seen better, I can’t remember.

I can understand using sticks and plaster for modeling, but what I don’t ken is what exactly do you do with junk mail. Mine usually just goes in the recycle bin.

Great modeling.

Junk mail is great stuff. Its like people are sending me free model building materials all the time. I get all different thicknesses of card stock that is coated on both sides so it takes paint much better than plain paper. It's usually good quality paper.

This siding is made from the cardstock that comes in junk mail to try and get me to sign up for a credit card. One of my favorites. They're kind enough to send me and my wife two every week. So I have saved a bunch of them. 4x52=208, I got plenty of building materials.
