I'm not sure where else to put this, so I'm posting it here even though it is not a diorama. This is an ancient Atlas HO/OO scale Lumber Mill that I built in tribute to my grandfather who owned one during WWII which kept him out of the service:    Thank you all for looking in, comments are welcome. |

A great looking building! Posting it here is fine, because you could eventually add to it, which makes it a diorama in my opinion.

Thank you Bucky! Yes, I do hope someday to add this to a display base of some sort; maybe even make it part of a photo base or something. We'll see.

That turned out pretty dang spiffy Mark. I think I've seen that kit before too. Is this the one?  |

Thank you Joe! Yes, that is the kit, although mine was an older issue that did not include the skids of lumber like this one seems to include. I preferred making mine with the raw wood appearance too and I didn't like the yellow so I painted my office blue.
Now to find the kit of the Blacksmith shop to replace the one I lost....

Yes!! That is the kit! Mine was boxed under the Tyco label though. I built it some years ago and it mysteriously disappeared with only a few parts left behind. Thank you for showing me what to look for.
