Someone to build an old Suydam kit for me

[malletman]

I am looking for someone to build an old metal Suydam roundhouse kit for me, along with painting and weathering it. Its a 3 stall model, unstarted with the parts bags still sealed. Thanks in advance. Mike

I haven't done a Suydam kit yet, have one sitting on my shelf, but if you can't find a pro to do it for you I'll give it a shot...

Here are some of my build threads:

If you're interested and want pictures of additional buildings I've completed, let me know. Feel free to ask here or PM me any questions.

The pics look great. The biggest issue with the roundhouse is all the truss work that has to be assembled. I am told these are best done with solder for strength but I suspect ACC glue would be just as good. There isnt much else to the roundhouse beyond the truss girder work and walls, rest is paint work and weathering. I would love to have the interior lighted but also trying to keep the costs down. Shoot me an idea of cost to build ect via a PM if you would Mike

Let me know if the plan falls through, I can also shoot you a quote on assembling one. Plus I can sell you, and attach a 2nd one if wanted...
