I think that it is DD1018 or DD1019, they show a version in the modelers pictures but not in the available kits. I believe that this was a limited edition kit.

Evert (thebig61) uses something called 'Squeeze & Caulk' which is a arcrylic latex base product. Would like to try it but so far .. not stocked at my local Lowes.

I am seriously thinking I will pick up a couple of Machinist 1,2,3 Blocks to help with that. I have been working (trying) to make some small small items in HO .. I would LOVE to have an extra $7k to buy my own personal laser cutter .. I really like the Zing 16. Looking forward to your further adventures .. :) Aligning the walls is one of my biggest buggaloos.

Part 3: Putting the grout between the bricks. by Dom http://www.railroadredux.com/2010/04/walthers-champion-packing-co-part-3-putting-the-grout-between-the-bricks/comment-page-1/#comment-80 Dom Tue, 27 Apr 2010 06:13:44 +0000 http://www.railroadredux.com/?p=252#comment-80 This kit went together fairly well. The only difficult part was in putting together the brick stack. This was fairly difficult and required the use of blue painters tape to hold the structure together. Other than that all of the pieces fit together with only minimal adjustments needed. This kit went together fairly well. The only difficult part was in putting together the brick stack.

I found that this tool comes out at the start of most of my structure kits, mainly because it is so easy to use. It is one of those tools that is so simple that the only thing that comes to mind is "why didn't I think of that" To answer your question; yes I still like this product, and if you do a lot of structure kits I think that it is a must-have.

I have a couple sheets of that 12"x12" cork sold for hanging on the wall. Thinking .. a couple of those glued to a piece of wood make for a nice layout board. Thanks for the hint. :) That’s an excellent idea. I have a couple sheets of that 12″x12″ cork sold for hanging on the wall.
