NANTUCKET SHINGLE HOUSE


American Shelters Series


Here is a slight variation of the classic New England Saltbox. Rather than running the shed roof straight down from the main peak we simply added on a shed with a flat pitched roof and have a whole new building. That famous New England thrift!

This kit goes together in about one evening. It is packed with fine detail. The walls and roof are clad in my fine scale 5" reveal cedar shingles - cast in white Hydrocal with all the detail of the hand-laid shingle-by- shingle originals. All the hard work is done. Simply color (don't worry, I explain that in the instructions) and assemble, and you'll have a great looking building for your layout. I took two of them and built an interesting waterfront "fish house".


23' x 27' ( 3-1/4" x 3-3/4" ) in HO scale.

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION - for this model


ON-LINE HOW TO CLINICS

  HOW TO CLINICS  
Here are a bunch of my on-line how to work with Hydrocal mini-clinics. Each kit includes specific instructions of course- and there are lots of ways to do things, but here are my thoughts, tips and techniques.

  Coloring SHAKE ROOFS  
Really the same as coloring concrete, it is simple. Check out how I do it.

SCRATCH-BUILDING STOCK

  Standard Common Brick- fine  
If you like to scratch-build or just want to practice before you do, check out my stock castings. These are the same building blocks I use to create my kits.

  Hand-Carved Stone-  
I have three different grades available. Use as retaining walls, cut them up for foundations, or make whole new buildings.

  Cinder Block Wall  
Mix it up a bit and you'll have an even more interesting building.

  Concrete Retaining Wall  
Whole 4" x 8" panels of the stuff. Use them for retaining walls, foundations, even make complete buildings like I have.

  Corrugated Metal  
The roof stock, my Cedar Shake Roof - fine, CSR-f, is available seperately. This is great stuff to have. Use for buildings, roofs, and what have you.


COMPLEMENTARY KITS

  The Nantucket Shingle House  
A slight variation on the Saltbox, the rear addition is built as a shed.

  The Safety Hook & Ladder Co.  
  Brick Firehouse  

How about this little two-story firehouse? It's the prefect introduction to Hydrocal brick structures. If you are afraid to tackle the larger kits why not start here? You will find that Hydrocal modeling is lots of fun and not that difficult to master.

  The Stone Shingle Mill  
is a great introduction to modeling stone in Hydrocal. This is one of my personal favorites, and indeed, one of my most popular kits.
