Also some progress shots on the T&GP machine shop. Three of the scratch built shelving units. Note there is even a letter on the middle unit. The box labels are printed using the computer and are period for the 50's.

Next up are some of the details that have yet to be installed. The typewriter even has a letter on the roller.

Lastly is a shot of the asphalt paving at the front of the building. This was constructed using an Arizona Rock product which is mixed to a paste and spread with a pallet knife. The manhole was installed first and covered with blue painters tape while the asphalt was drying.

Matt: Paper Wasps make an interesting nest---it'd look really good under those rafters!! ----I can also see a few squirrels----

Good grief--a whole zoo showed up---LOL!!!
